I built my own guage pod, it is not done yet, I'm still waiting for more $$ to put a few more guages in. Got a set of custom tow hook extenders just the other day...

Gotta find the pics of the gages...

I havn't fabbed anything cool for my truck yet, but I do have several one off pieces I've machined that are floating around on various bikes around here in cluding a couple of my own bikes.

The truck is going to get some custom work soon though I promise

I couldnt wait for my "swanker" so I had my fabricator make a few for the local guys and myself. yep stainless exhaust tubing 2 90* and a center section to make it longer, Flange to bolt it up and the end welded to keep the boot on BUT Darryl Poole has a flang maker so my latest intake horn will be flaired out on the end. Ill post a pic when it comes back
