Thanks brother, the blue led rocker switches and the 52mm gauges finally complete the image I've had in my head since I bought them back in January...talk about procrastinating lol

I'll give that cocky little ***** credit, he's 50-0 but he's not my style of fighter...I guess being a defensive fighter with no power behind his punches has worked well for him. He's made a shit load of $$$ but if he were to get into the octagon with McGregor he would of been running around in circles crying like a little *****! lol

I finished wiring all the rocker switches up yesterday, just need to install the rear led lights on the Escalade bumper once I swap it out

The interior is almost done...I still need to install some more led lighting but it's good enough for now. I wet sanded and did a 3 step paint correction to a small area where the paint was in really bad shape but it still looked terrible

I need to lay down some paint in the next few weeks before it starts getting too cold again...here's a little teaser of what the exterior will look like soon :D I think it's gonna look awesome!

Amazon.com: Herculiner HCL1B8 Brush-on Bed Liner Kit: Automotive

I bought 3 gallons of herculiner, a new 5'' orbital sander to remove the paint, different grits of sand paper to get as close to the metal as possible and some acetone to clean it all up before paint

Makita BO5041K 5-Inch Random Orbit Sander Kit - Power Random Orbit Sanders - Amazon.com

800/1000/1200/1500/2000 Grit Sandpapers - - Amazon.com

Amazon.com: Rust-Oleum Automotive 248667 32-Ounce Acetone Quart: Home Improvement

Here's the video that inspired me lol

Going to remove the smashed rear bumper on the Tahoe today and replace it with the Escalades rear bumper along with new 6.5'' led light bars

Did some research and it looks like all I'm going to need is a 15,18 and 21mm socket to remove the bumper...I already looked to see how bad the rust was, let's just say there's going to be a lot of cursing involved lol

Just spray em up a bit first. They're not torqued hard at all. 10 bolts, buddy. Get to it.

My HOE spent its entire life in Jersey, and mine wasn't too bad to get off. I just used hand tools. Have a breaker bar handy tho, and wear some gloves. You def don't wanna skin your knuckles!
