Soon. Ive got some mo' wiring to do and Im waiting on Mac to ship my darn mooooflers. Then you might hear mine light up.

Hopefully it doesnt take near as long to get the lers as it did to get my CHE lowers. Also waiting on my rear drop springs, and tank mounts.. By the time everything rolls in I could have the interior 99% done.
