The paint looks good. Glad to see the hood came out better the second time.

Go to the first post in your thread and hit edit then hit advanced at the bottom. At the top you will see the "Title" box and you can then change it to what you want.

You really did some magic on that passenger cab corner.

Keep up the fantastic work. Looks really great.

Redroad thanks for the instructions, and i tried but could not find anything in edit that said advanced.
might be because im on a smart phone and it doesnt show like a computer would. Idk

light blue oval thanks

i have installed the hood, but am having trouble getting adjusted properly on the passenger side.
the drivers side is close.
i have lowered everything on the passenger side to get down, it still needs to go down approx. 3/8 inch
this is not a oem hood, i purchased a after market replacement.
any one have an idea to get the hood lower short of a BFH?
will take a picture of offending side later
a pic of hood mounted

Hood mounted still working on adjustments.

This is it. You may be right. I'll try it on my phone after dinner.

It works from phone

Ok I figured out how to do it on the phone (Android OS). Pull up the site then click on three dots in the upper right corner, then in the drop down choose desktop site. Make sure your signed in and then follow my instructions above to change the title of the thread. I'll admit it's a pain to navigate this way but it will work. BTW great job on your truck

Option 2 Email the admin or Just make a post here in your thread requesting the moderator make the change to whatever you want it to be. They should have no problem doing it because they have your sign-in credentials already. I guy should be able to name his tread whatever he wants. So post something like " Attention moderator please change my thread to Blah blah blah". Oh, and I doubt that is because you ain't that bright at these things judging from the excellent work you've done on your truck.
