[D1nman]

Done with what?

 

[03z-71]

your BA build!

 

[D1nman]

It'll never be done!

 

[03z-71]

good answer!

 

[D1nman]

I don't know what's going on it next though. The next big thing will be a system, you know I really haven't done anything to the interior of this truck

 

[03z-71]

me either really! I like the factory look and feel on the interior, but i have to have a system in everything I get. Once you have one then it is hard to go back

 

[Bootstrap]

Yeah, im working on my audio now too.

True. I've been in a friends and I need more bass lol. I really want a charcoal interior to go with the stormtrooper look but it'll have to wait

 

[Fourstar07]

still running ok with 240k+ miles on it?

 

[D1nman]

Yep. It has a little tick when cold but other than that it's smooth. Oh and the knock sensor was wet from detailing, it dried and is fine now
