    thanks for the pics, really like how you've finished it off. sorry i had to throw the dig in about the roughriders, i know it's a prerequisite to live in the province! one of my staff is from Nipawin and wears green all the time so i bust his balls pretty good! enjoy your ride!

    Excellent job, it's perfect. Love everything about it. Would love my 5w to end up like yours but I haven't got 8 years left LOL. I'm with flatoz on the wheel too.

    Looks great, man! Nothin' says, "Bad Mutha", like black hot rod. Yes, black is the new red.
