How do you like it? I was looking to get something like this. Was originally going to look at the Mopar one, but this looks much more cost effective. Haven't seen the Mopar one in person so do not know what the big difference would be.
I like it so far and very cost effective. I believe the Mopar ones are discontinued so went this route. I have a bed cover too so keeps the bed dry.

Carven muffler swap, welded the rear resonator drain holes and gave her a bath. Exhaust is perfect for me. Nice rumble on start up and normal acceleration, speaks the truth when you get on her but absolutely no drone at cruising speed even highway. Only time will tell how much drone their will be during towing but it’s ok, I love it.

Hows the bed cover keeping out water? Last time we saw each other it was leaking

Hope all is well
Still leaks, but not as much after changing the weather seal at the bulkhead. I gave up on trying to figure out how it gets in through the sides. I just keep cargo off the wheel wells and bed floor if rain is expected. Thanks for checking in. I see you’ve continued modifying your truck. Looking good!

More mods to come - got a level kit waiting to find someone good in my area to install it for a good price

Might get the Nitto Ridge Grappler tires and sell the falkens to offset some cost

Then im done for the most part. If your ever in the area again let me know

Painted the tail pipes, no pics on the truck yet as I just got them back on at night.

I used high temp paint and hit them with a heat gun a few times for 10-15 min stretches. I’m hoping that works since I didn’t want to bake them in our oven.

Ordered the Borla Atak Cat back Saturday, Should be installed this monday or tuesday. I cant wait!
Nice! I recently got the s-type and at first, I was like "oh **** what did I do, this is really loud, then after a several days and some miles, it calmed down (and my ears acclimated) and now I'm thinking I could have got the Atak! Enjoy :)

Looks good, I painted mine also. But I didn’t use a heat gun nor bake it, and they turned out great.

Added some extra reverse lighting today. Got the idea from BEAST Projects on YouTube. I like the Soundoff Signal lights he used but I have no desire to drill into my bumper. I used the mPower 35* wedge along with the white LED 4" light pod and mounted it to the lower fascia. I think it looks great there! Also since the mPower lights were designed for police use, there's an extra wire for strobe. This will come in handy if I'm on the side of the road to add to the 4-ways. I also took a video of how the strobe looks.
