Thanks!
That looks sooo nice!! I have thought about doing this but I was reluctant thinking painted calipers are a bit ricey. But having them that color looks very OEMish.
Also thinking about painting the black part of the stock mufflers and pipe in the back silver too.

What paint did you use?

Nate,

That's a heat shield. Since he's running the short ram, it tends to suck hot air from inside the engine bay. With the heat shield, it kind of stops it.

I like that heat sheild idea. I'm not sure if it will completely stop the hot air from getting sucked in tho.

yeah, i mainly made the cover to prevent water drops from gettting on the filter. it should also help keeping engine air from getting in. its abs plastic. i just used 2 bolts to attach it to the battery cover and it slides perfectly in between this little gap in the fender.
thats what i was telling you about months ago nate.

i regret those plates, too much attention

Looking good mr tl! You finally decided to go with the OEM kit - nice job on the mods.
What did you use to cover up the fog openings?
