What did you do to your GMT today?

[JRTAHOE]

How about "LIL HOE"

I like but might send out the wrong idea

One last thing I did today was went to get a recharging kit for my air filter so I have that drying off right now and I'm also making a shopping list/ plan of attack for draining my cooling system as soon as our garage door gets fixed so I can have a few fans blowing on me while I change it out. Damn Oklahoma weather

Started working on refurbing the rims. Typical factory rims, the clearcoated spokes started bubbling and pitting. So I took the sanding wheel to them and took off all the clearcoat. Leaving the indented parts charcoal grey since they aren't messed up at all. Going to paint the spokes the same color as the body, primer, base, and clear them so hopefully they will stay good like the indented parts did...

Well I guess I ended yesterday and get to start today. Had to run down and use my TB for something that makes me laugh my ass off. Towing a POS Ford again. Had a call from my mom stranded because her Escape broke its timing belt at 65k . That thing has been tagging along off the back of my TB many many times now and its the same year with less miles. Let's see, my TB has been towed hmmmm oh yea, never!

Went and washed and cleaned the SS. About time to plastidip the wheels. Clear coat looks like shit in some spots.

I wish I could plasti dip mine... but the black just wouldn't look right on my blue and the color scheme I'm going with, and I already tried the "smoke" and that was an epic failure.. luckily (for now), my rims and clear coat are perfectly fine...

Look forward to seein the pix bro

Took my truck to the Celebrity car wash here in KSA. Bet you've never seen so many people wash one truck at once lol

 

[gotspeed1]

Brought it back home from Cripple Creek where we were at do to fire evacuations. Now time to clean out all of the stuff I packed into it, just in case.

You know they just starting making gunmetal grey, and I bet it would look pretty cool.

I've been thinking about doing mine in the gunmetal gray. (even before i got my new wheels). I'd like to see the gray wheels on a black ride. Guess we'll see who does it first

 

[Boricua SS]

Fad,

that is awesome.. so many people washing the ride... no wonder its a "celebrity" car wash

and yea, Sam sent me a PM and a link to a youtube video on the new gunmetal color... that would be my choice and that was what i was trying to accomplish with the Smoke Plasti Dip...... so I've been lookin into that as well.. my ultimate goal will be FR 22" Chrome wheels

Got back from May's a little bit ago. We worked on installing the Quad Parks (they look great). We swapped my nokya's in the lows/highs/reverses back to stock (I gotta go thru inspection tomoro--I'm still gonna fail but that's a couple less things to worry about later). We had to fix some LED's behind the grille and lastly we tackled the weather stripping right by the rear doors (some kind of 3M sealant). Thanks again May!!---you're the man!! we had another productive day

Word up!!! Productive indeed, despite the record temps.

"Looks like I had my shirt on inside out. Isn't that how Kris Kross wore their clothes back in the day?"

 

[smitty5150]

It was a day of brainstorming. Need to prioritize what projects to try finishing before Carlisle.

 

[SBUBandit]

Spent the day cleaning up the TB after she had a rough week. Taurus was out of commission for a broken subframe, so the TB became the daily driver on back dirt roads for a week. Very happy to have my car back, only because it means I can stop beating up the TB. She's very happy to be clean again.

 

[Boricua SS]

thats ok... while your riding low and in stlye, I'll just blow your doors off with a nice smokey burnout and all my go fast goodies that are just laying around in my garage ...oh wait, i couldnt do that in a Mazda LMAO!!! i would still love some chrome 22's though!!! but with the money for them.. im more about speed lol... a man can dream though :crackup

as for what i did today... well i was bored, and while the beaSSt was at the dealer gettin her new motor, they replaced my DDM due to a short in my power mirrors... ok great.. i get a new module.. the only problem, was my old one had my LED's in them lol... so i had to change that this evening.. and i fixed a burnt out LED in my headlight switch...

.. I know what you mean bro... I can't wait to throw everything back in her.. but my dad has been talking with the guys at his work (works at the dealership) and they're requesting I drop the truck off in september for winter storage and a complete tear down of the motor to figure out what's going on.. so no "go fast" goodies for me this year

And here's to a successful adoption and locating a house :beer:

And Fad, its super easy to convert to LED's bro... just gotta have patience and some soldering skills...

I'm debating doing the LED swap as well, but I'm worried they'll be a little too bright and kinda distracting... Can you honestly tell me if they're a little too bright?

 

[Canary2323]

Painted rims and bowties today, kinda.. What do you think?

 

[Fire06]

Black with the red bow tie looks good

 

[07ChevyTruck]

Ordered up some more Amsoil for an oil and filter change.

I did most of mine a while ago. Still never finished them. They can be bright but I used the simmer switch to keep the stock lights low anyways so i just did the same with them.

 

[mikeinDE]

WooHoo!! Failed inspection this morning. I gotta take off my windshield tint brow, it's too low. And put the covers on my overhead Hella's. Not too bad, did better than I thought. They didn't even cry about my tinted 3rd brake light or even ask about the Whelen's I got mounted on the headliner.

 

[Boricua SS]

i want mine to be BRIGHTER i even added extra LED's in series to make some panels brighter, but thats just me... they arent bright at all... and after all, they can be dimmed with your dimmer dial on the headlight switch... just make sure you get some flat top style bulbs, or if you get the dome style, make sure to sand them flat to help dispurse the light better and not create hot spots.. my rear wiper control had hotspots on it and it was very distracting... so a little sanding fixed that...

just try it on one circuit board and see how you like it... i would suggest maybe a rear window switch, or your wiper switch...

Hey guys, this was a couple weeks ago but i havent actually posted on here in a couple weeks. Been super busy this summer. Ill be back on more now tho

These are some LED mods i did a couple weeks back (will also post in LED MOD thread)
Put 2, 3 inch LED bars in the grille. Driver and passenger side foot area. And also put 2 in the rear trunk area for some extra lighting.
Next ill be doing the dome lights when i get the $$$
Here they are, Let me know what you think

 

[Boricua SS]
