    I've checked Amazon, and they tend to be priced higher than Home Depot for some tools.

    Actually, I've found that Viking electrical supply sometimes is the cheapest. That works well for me as I tend to stop there at least once a week.

    Of course, this also leads to me blowing all of my money on tools:anonymous:

    Yeah, I'm a fool for not paying 3× as much for a product that won't benefit me in any way whatsoever.o_O

    I love it...just playing around with you man. The only products I honestly feel amsoil has that is very good is...their ATF, their 2 stroke motorcycle oil, and their performance improver. Or P.I.

    I believe that it's a good product. I would consider it if I intended to use longer oil change intervals. But, due to my driving style, I've decided to do 5K changes.

    they are the 9005 xtreme LED pro lights from xenondepot with the drl driver. The LED strip lights are part of a bezel kit replacement Aiden James Customs makes and sells. They are actual switchbacks with the turn signal lights. Great easy kit, although there is some controversy with customer service, I had no issues and he was actually very responsive.

    Is it a direct fit?

    I went with Prothane. Using them up front I don't need a sway bar relocation bracket. The holes in the brackets are oblong so I can position the sway bar to clear my shocks after the lift install. I am not a fan of spacers and brackets like that so this was a win / win for me.

    One of the better looking basket style racks I've seen! Do you mind sharing how much it was? I didn't see it on their website.

    Also, do you notice much wind noise?

    It's going to be a long week. Halloween Thursday and my son's birthday Friday. Suspension install and alignment Friday as well while my son is still in school. Then busy weekend doing birthday stuff...

    So today I took a trip to my father's river property on the Suwanee and relaxed for a few hours. Watched the sunrise and then watched storm clouds rolling in. Even nasty days can be beautiful in their own right.

    My Poor man’s Cold Air Intake is complete with the TRD Air Filter Added Today.

    Poor man’s CAI consists of a TRD Air Accelerator Horn, and TRD Air Filter :D

    I haven’t driven it yet with the Filter added. I doubt it sounds like the Complete Set up.

    There is a very slight difference due to the filter but the cone does nothing at all. Did you removed the restrictor pipe from the inlet on the lower section?

    Only other thing you might want to do is remove the fins inside the box. The TRD intake does not have them, it's completely smooth. You can also remove the charcoal filter glued to the lid of the air box if you haven't done so already. That's about the best you'll get without a complete CAI

    Less restriction. Doubt it does much but every little bit helps. The charcoal filter also can't be replaced without replacing the whole lid so at some point you'll have to remove it anyway.
