I like white because it stays clean, doesn't show scratches, stays cool in the sun... But I think dark colors look nicer when they're clean and not scratched.

I don't remember. That was dec 2007. It wasn't too bad though. But the bolt is $30! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

Stiff steering. How stiff we can't tell, but the wheels should track straight going forward with no tierods. That means you're going to have to overcome the wheels wanting to stay straight everytime you want to turn.

How stiff is your front end Randy? I'd rather have it stiff than twitchy.

Do not buy a new one! PM me your address, I will send you one of my old ones.
Paint it and make it what ever color you want!

Hey guys...go to my pics and check out the job I did on my hood yesterday with a can of Black Krylon Fusion and some chrome decals I got off of eBay...pretty sick if I say so myself, lol I think just to be safe I'm going to hit it with a couple coats of clear too.



Hey Randy...any chance I could bother you to snap a few pics of your nerf bars, like the mounting points and the strap mounts and have you email them to me... i think I'm going to custom fab a set. You can send them directly to my personal email if you don't ming doing that. Thanks!

That hood looks super nice. I had really good luck with my red spray paint today from Menards. Looks like the candiest of apple reds.

Here's some pics for you:

Alright, since we are talking about colors, and I like the white, even though you guys do not like white, what do you think of a white hood on white plastic as opposed to blue hood on white plastic. Just trying to think of something different ad not be ugly.</end quote></div>

I think that could look pretty <u>slick</u> (Just for you Randy). Go all white then have blue accents or something. Blue handguards maybe with the blue seat.

Maybe you could get one of those sets of all blue nerfs too.
