  1. I've never really thought it smells like sharpies...but it definatly smells bad. Its the strongest smelling chemical I've ever smelled. You have to wear gloves and a breathing mask when using the stuff its terrible. I've thrown up from breathing in a bit too much of it. Hate the smell, love the results. And yeah this stuff will absolutely kill your hands or anything it touches.
  2. Sorry if this is late...but I work as a detailer at a used car dealership, so I see a lot of used cars come in that had previous owners that hated to take care of the wheels If the stuff is really stubborn you will have to use really strong chemicals to get it off. At my shop I use a acid alluminum brightener. It works wonders, and can usually clean wheels up extremely fast. Today I was painting my rims black, and while I had the rims off the Jeep I decided to clean the backsides of the rims just cuz. I wouldnt be surprised if it was the first time they have been washed ever. Started like this Ended up like this That was after only going over once. I really don't care about how my rims look like on the backside as no one ever sees them, but you can literally get any rim looking great with this stuff no matter how bad it looks now. The stuff I use is industrial strength, and we get it in bulk in like 10 gallon containers...so I'm not even sure if you'll be able to get it...but if you can, its worth looking into.
  3. I've never heard of a car with a system of only a 150 watt sub and pyle speakers destroying a car, but this is the internet, so if you say so, it must be true.
  4. Wow man thats a nice looking truck, especially for a 16 year old! Did you buy it lifted or did you add the lift yourself? Your truck looks exactly like my friends except his is a 4 door. Looks like your doing a great job so far. I'm interested in seeing where you take this
  5. Where'd you get that shifter knob? I've got a 99 Cherokee with the automatic transmission and have been wanting to add a personal touch to the shifter but can't find anywhere that make knobs for an automatic...
  6. Theres a guy on naxja who did a front end conversion from the 2500 to his XJ. Its also for sale. http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f153/1999-jeep-cherokee-heavily-modded-1304848/
  7. i dont think your understanding it...your not spending $125 to rent it...you'll only be spending like $25 or whatever the actual owner is charging to borrow it for a set amount of time. Then when your done with it you send it back to the owner and he'll send you $100 back. The $125 is just a way to keep people honest so that they won't send the owner $25 to rent the dd and then never return the device. For people like me I like this idea. I have one car and I'm not gonna be changing my system anytime soon. I also don't build other people systems, so I don't think it would be smart for me with my income to go spend $125 on a dd to only set one system with. I'd much rather only spend $25 and only use the dd once, which is how many times I would be using it if I bought it for $125.
  8. You should be taken from crutchfield http://www.crutchfield.com/S-s2zrt2SzXhx/p_113KDC248U/Kenwood-KDC-248U.html#details-tab
  9. There a great company to deal with IMO. I've ordered $300 in stuff for my car this week I've bought a lot from them in the past and the shipping is usually free and always fast. Never had a problem with them.
  10. If you have 6300 true RMS on a 15 volt system, then thats pulling 420 amps. I don't know what batteries you have, and I'm kind of new to car audio, but it looks like you just don't have enough power in your electrical system to start with. You'll need more batteries and maybe another alt.
  11. These are the 4 8's a guy at my school has. I'm not sure if he installed them or if he got a shop to do them...but I've heard the get pretty loud, although I've never heard them myself. Look pretty good though. Good luck with whatever you choose to do.
  12. I'm gonna buy a kicker ZX 350.4 from sonicelectronix...its only $145...although that was the only good looking deal on the whole sight. Just sayin.
