Here's my new coils with the quick discos (thanks Lyon), and my redrilled trackbar mount with grade 8 hardware.

Ok, now to a problem I'm hoping y'all can help me with. Cuz my shackle is so much bigger now, my tailpipe hits it and rattles. Should I trim the bolt (grade 8 cuz of the sleeve issue) or just bend the pipe away from the shackle? I know the pipe can be bent pretty easy.

What bedliner did you use on your bumper end caps? Mine are faded like crazy

I used the duplicolor spray on bed liner. I would not recommend that though... It's starting to peel already. Now, I didn't sand or really prep the plastic. I just cleaned in with brake cleaner. If you sand it, and clean them properly, I'm sure you'll have better luck.

putting the spray on bedliner onto plastic doesn't always work. sometimes you have to get something to make it stick, and because my memory SUCKS, I can't remember what it's called...
