Installed my White Knuckles this past weekend! They are awesome... If you need help, let me know.

Cool, they should be ready in 3-4 weeks.

The Vision X Optimus Halos don't really fit anywhere now.

Those look great

I was getting PCS System Temporarily unavailable once the winch was installed. All it took was bending the bracket for the solenoid box down as flat as I could get it and still get the wrench off it. No more warning.

The first 200 Series Goose Gear platform and cabinet build went in the night before I left for Turf N Surf. Great storage solution, lightweight and built for exactly what you want. Brian and Matt have it together over there.

Plasti Dip went down yesterday.

Boy, I really need to clean the fenderwells...

Looks good, is plastic dipping less expensive than replacing the wheels? I was going to replace the wheels on my cruiser, but I really like the way this looks.

Took about $40 in spray-on PlastiDip to do all 5 wheels. Did it all in one morning with adequate dry time between layers.

I remember when I had arms like that dude... Guy's got GUNS. Must do a lot of sanding...?

Great tutorial for dipping!

I see you added the skate tape to the sliders! Nice touch.

I really like the functional extrusion on the Goose Gear system.
