Got my vents installed. The aluminum ones fit a little loose with the 2" hole so I went with 3 of the plastic ones. Where they're located, the plastic shouldn't be a problem. Maybe they will help. @PioneerPete I got 3 more plastic ones or 6 of the aluminum. You can take your pick.

They are yours sir. Just gotta figure out how to get them to you. May have to end up mailing them. That'd be a good bike ride but you aren't home during the day

Been wanting to extend my snorkel up to the roof and finally got around to it. Way higher than necessary but that's a good thing lol

Bolted up a couple D-rings to front bumper. With the guys I ride with, they'll come in handy for when I need a helping hand lol

Was considering welding them on but then I'd have to paint it again. Used 1/2" grade 8s. That should hold. D-rings themselves are rated for 3660lbs.

Those look like the units I got from the Depot to tie down the Honda. If they are I can vouch for their beefiness!

My next official mod is going to be making mine a 1000-7 like @CumminsPusher has. Already have a 15yr old daughter from last Friday and today we have 3 more. 6yr old boy, 4yr old girl, and 1yr old girl. @joeymt33 looks like Marshall is gonna have another playmate out on the Bull lol. Haven't met them yet but my wife says they are precious. They were homeless. No way we could refuse.
