I know right? It's crazy how much money I've wasted buying something and changing my mind or I find something I like better and wind up selling it for a loss lol. I've been through three different exhaust setups and the best part is I've now been running no exhaust at all for like 8 months. Shit it's even the same way with my front bumper. It's been on my truck for 8 months and I just sold it for half of what it is new. I think I need to seek professional help lol.
I have been running no exhaust since the week after I got the truck I was tired of it being so quiet so I hacked it off after the cats snd it sounds good. Going to get some SW long tube headers and electric dumps straight piped through flow master 10s out the side lightning style next. No cats. I'll need a tune to turn off my down stream censors first.

I like the sound with no exhaust. That's funny I have a brand new still in the box Flowmaster 10 series muffler that I was going to weld on my flange and put a turn down on. I decided to go a different route though so if you do wind up doing it let me know, I'll give you a good deal on it if you want it.

Will do buddy. First thing I gotta do is order a different tuner and some custom tunes from Jeffery. Then order my headers.

Awesome thanks. I like that setup. I'm actually waiting for my front bumper I ordered from SVC. I wound up going with a Baja onx 30" duel power in the bottom and baja onx 44" arc that they are making a top hoop for. It's funny how hard it is to finally make decisions on mods then when you do you wind up making one you see something else you like and are like "damn I wish I would have thought about that first" lol.

I went round and round for a couple weeks on what lights to buy. Honestly I wanted to stay with rigid. They just didn't really have what I wanted. That is a baja V1 style bumper and the opening is taller then just a single bar and I wanted to fill the hole. I wanted a 30"RDS bar on top and a 30' sr2 underneath it but the opening is narrower at the bottom so that wouldn't work. It's like 28" wide at the bottom so I thought a 20" would look off too.

I wound up going with BAja Designs because their bars are alittle shorter so I could fit 2 of the same looking bars in the opening. I found the 22" arc onx6 in the scratch and dent thread. Wish it was 26" but 22" is better then 20" I guess. The top one is a 30" racer edition, BDs top of the line. I bought that because I wanted to make sure it would shine farther then the 20" rigid hyper spot I had on my factory bumper. That light was awesome! Does it? Not sure yet, I hooked it up to the battery quick and to see it. The BD definitely lights up more but I think the hyper spot my have gone farther. My dad has a hyper spot so once I get it all installed I'll compare em.

End result I'm pretty happy with how it looks. Can't wait to see it all on the truck! Gotta bet the bumper coated first.

I think you made a good choice. I've been going back and forth for awhile also. Originally I was going with KC Flex lights but I could wait any longer for them to come out with a Radius bar so I decided to go with Baja's which I really liked also. The 44" Arc that I got was from the scratch and dent thread also but I wound up getting the 30" onx6 duel power full price unfortunately lol. I didn't have any problems with any of my Rigid's but I figured since I was changing out the bumper I couldn't keep the same old lights. Lol. Can't wait to pics of yours installed.
