    i got an idea but unsure if it will look good or not. i've never seen it done on a truck.

    http://www.yearone.com/serverfiles/fbshopmain2.asp?input=pentastar&SM=1&SC=A


    its #18 on the page.


    just one on the passanger side fender. i'd line it up with the door spear. im thinking it should stand out on my black bee for shes debadged. i really like how they look on the old mopars. someday i get an old mopar till then i'll slowely give the bee old school looking mods. please give your opinion.

    I think it would look fine....but why just the passenger side? I would do both sides...

    not all the old mopars had them but the ones that did only had them on the passange side and i don't know why? if you see an old mopar with them on both sides someones added them and that is incorrect and i've head people call them chevy shop jobs.

    I say go for it. But is it stick on or does it have prongs behind it??? I would search for the stick on ones before you drill IMO.

    that one has the prongs being its from year one, all of them i find has the prongs for they are all for made for the old mopars.:(

    im gonna keep looking because i don't want to drill but will if i have to. if i have to drill after its fastened im gonna spray some undercoating on the inside then pray it don't rust.

    You could cut the prongs, file them smooth (Dremel) and use either double sided 3M tape or bit of clear silicone glue to attach it.

    His sig states:
    "Would anyone be interested in buying my Dynatech headers. They have never been installed. Just the box opened to look at the beautiful work. They are stainless and are in mint condition. Was thinking about 1300 for em. (Its the complete set with cats y pipe and everything.) Email. me at [email protected]"

    His only 3 posts seems his intentions is to just use this message board as a point of sale to sell his wares.

    I have sent a PM to him.

    well not sure if the roll pan is still gonna happen. the one i was gonna get was gonna be fiberglass and made using terry delongs mold. the member here Luke bought the mold from him and is trying to make some to sell but i don't know if he still is or not. he ain't on here much and i lost my main communication with him so hopefully he'll remember to come over here when he's ready to sell.



    well the hood is ordered. i ordered it about a week ago and im not sure if that was a smart move or not. work was great at the plant but now they are talking of cutting guys overtime. the company says we got work till first of the year but unsure after that so hopefully i don't get laid off. for i got the big truck payment a small car payment and insurance.
