haha it was a joke at first, cuz i stuck a honda emblem on the grille after i painted it, and it didnt have any other badges on it, then my buddy got the bright idea to put the ridgeline badges on it.... i didnt really want to, but then again, at least once a week i get the, "Is that really a ridgeline?!?!?!" i just smile and reply, "Yep, first gen, hybrid"

but they're gonna be coming off soon, as soon as i can get my hands on the new kia forte KOUP emblems, since its my name haha

they're a little out of order, but you get the idea.... took about 4 hours in the shop, and a day in the driveway, beveling the support tubes was by far the biggest PITA, but made for quick work in the gravel driveway

Where did you get that acorn table at? I love those things!!


Looks good, deffinatly got coverage there. Can't tell if they stick out far enough to be an adequete step. But are you Herc'ing them to use as a running board/step or just painting?

what are your plans with that cra in the background haha. i used to build them up when i was younger. the sliders look good not get pics of you testing them out

the tables are scattered about in the school's shop, couple taller ones like the one pictured and a few lower ones, they are the titties

but as for sticking out, i just wanted them about 2"-ish out, just enough for an exo to be mounted to, should i end up turning this into a full wheeler, but its a dd for now, unless someone has some cheap 35s they wanna get rid of.......

and im not sure if im going to go with some sort of 3m grip tape, or some other idea for traction, might tack on a small section of expanded steel, but i dont think ill like the look of it, grip tape will most likely be the route i take

haha its a buddy's of mine at school, its his driveway i used, but the plans for that are 350 at the wheels, and lots of boost, he's acquiring parts at the moment..... its gonna be stupid fast, and he's REALLY good with hondas, burns his own chips n shit, haha he's got his shit together
