Billet Kings, this is the Diablo Series. I'm hoping to have it installed by this weekend and I'll post pictures.

Re: project "WILD THING"

Several years ago I had some newer seats covered for my truck but I have since decided to go back to factory sport buckets. My Dad just finished covering the seats for my truck and also the seats for my 72 blazer that I am also building.

Re: project "WILD THING"

Quarter glass installed yesterday, also busted my windshield trying to install it. I decided I really dislike the Stainless trim.
