New fogs are supposed to be here tomorrow. Thinking a need to find a lower air dam/valance for it.

The passenger headlight is yellow af. Gonna try to polish it up and see how it looks. May end up buying more heads to clear.

Needs more e cutouts
Definitely in the plans. Ill probably add a magnaflow soon.

In other news. Got my new vmax badges today. Wanted to leave it debadged but there was a chip under the passenger badge when i removed the broken part. Since its a real vmax i dont have a problem running the badges.

Thanks bro. Im working on getting it back to being that clean lol. I need a lower air dam/valance. It looks better with one.

Got a lot done today.

I had a set of 275/45s laying around, so i threw them on my tahoes and mounted them on the truck. 2 of them are a little worn so im gonna buy a new set but i got tired of the tires rubbing on the 17s and i didnt want 275/55s on the tahoes because i dont want it rubbing once its dropped.

Then i got my new fogs in. Much better without the black ones.

Once that was done i moved on to removing the pinstripe and debadging the tailgate.

Being Vmax you have 4.10s right? Should be fun with the babeh turs on it. I had a set of 245/65r17s on my nbs with 4.10s for a day, many burnouts, would even do like 25-30 mph rolling burnouts and it was all stock with just a 5.3

Some vmax's come with 3.73s...just luck of the draw I think. But with those mods I bet it moves pretty good! Seems to be movin along nicely. Dad has a 08 vmax himself but 4x4 and with 4.10s. Much much quicker than the nbs you had lol. Comin together nicely! See you in Shreveport

Finna need dos QTPs.
Imfo. Been debating leaving the exhaust how it is and just getting some electric cutouts for when i want it loud. It's kinda nice having it quiet at idle lol.
