Get the running boards M!!! The flares aren't worth it IMO, not for $800.. they look great but i'd rather take them off an X in the junk yard (i know, thats like grave robbing).

So you mean i didnt NEED all these mods? coulda fooled me. Vince, i still haven't done rotors or calipers..

my guy used a saw to cut behind the bumper once the bumper was removed. he didnt want to risk "blowinig up my car" by torchiing them off.

those rotors and painted calipers will be a nice touch to your X. get em done already!

my wants are quickly becoming needs. how much were those fender flares again? $800 seems reasonable doesnt it?

The scary thing is that the fender flares could cost more by spring...

I'm thinking of pulling the trigger soon myself. The prices of parts just keep inching higher each month that I've delayed. So far this summer, I've bought a 4.8 front bumper cover, rear 4.6/4.8 kit. I want the fender flares and 20" rims to complete the conversion, and perhaps lowering springs for my 04 4.4i. jeez...this is fun, but getting expensive
