Bronx usually gets up with me at 0500, then the other two think they're missing out on something and get up too. My internal alarm gets me up at the same time and so does Bronx and this time change only lasts 4 months.

The Pom might wake up early, to pee, but, that's the wife's dog. My collie can sleep 14 hours.

I know, it does look a little like the grills from Lincolns. No, it's just a grill I found searching for something different, it's Spec-D Tuning.

Interesting. I am thinking about possibly doing some lighting upgrades to mine. The factory lights work okay but they just seem to leave a little to be desired when the high beams are on. I am tossing around replacing the current head and tail light housings with the Harley versions because they are black instead of chrome and using LED bulbs in them. The other option is to get a set of Raptor style Spyder halogen projector head lights and also get their LED tails in either a black version (looks very similar to the Harleys) or get the same lights in a smoked version that just tints the red of the lense down some. Here is a picture of the two tails.


Here is what is currently on it. The chrome looks okay but once the other wheels go on the only chrome that will be left is the lights and running boards.

Those red smoke ones look good, and I am also getting away from all the chrome too. My next big upgrade will be the front Road Armor bumper and grill guard.

I agree with Steve Neil. The red smoke ones look good.

That is what I am leaning towards especially if I switch to these for head lights.

Thanks, they also offer a projector head light that has separate hi & low projectors. The single projector looks closer to stock than the other ones.

Dig the lights, Neil! I like the smoked taillights also.

Steve, like the new grill!
