I'm still interested in pics if anyone's done this... I think this project might be coming up while I wait for some other stuff... should be a relatively cheap one  |

Now see thats the color blue I would love to have the xB in. If they make it in that color for next years RS I am gonna be so freakin pissed. Although I couldn't wait for next year anyways.
Very nice job on the painting.

I'll let you know in a day. I've got some pluses and minuses on it, but I'm gonna write an install tutorial. I'll put all my comments on there. It's a real easy install, but I figure the more tutorials we have on the site, the bettter.
