To be honest you could prob wrangle up some help from some dudes here...

Bar-b-q and some mods installed is not that bad... and its prob cheaper then paying for the install...

but if you would rather go the pro route... Evan is a great option.

MOD DAY needs a date... I am going to go ahead and vote like April 6th... I know its like a month away... but that gives people a chance to get the shit they have been thinking about... and it also makes sure the weather is not going to freeze up on us real quick like on a whim...

The weekend before that I can't do, my girl comes home after 2 months in hawaii so I am going to be real busy the weekend of the 30th hahahaah

The weekend before that the 23, is actually my B-day.. so I might be heading up for one last snowboarding hurrah but with the way the weather is that might not work either hahaha

The weekend before that... next weekend I would be down... but it also makes it kinda a quick thing if anyone has been thinking about stuff... (I don't know if all the parts I want to install are going to be in by then hahaha)

But whatev's I will try to make any one of those weekends to be honest...


We also need a location... I will bring my new tool set hahaha but thats not the most bad ass set... and I will bring some custom brewed Ice Tea and some beers and some snacks and whatnot... But I am sure we are going to need flat driveway space and good jacks and stands and what not...

Oh also...


I picked up those little squares from Home Depot today and new zip ties...

but the gutter screen stuff was kinda blah... it didn't really look like it would hold up... and it was really thin and cut to a shape that wouldn't really work...
I checked for rolls of wire mesh and they had metal version of the plastic you said you had... but it was really thin also... I think the plastic might be the best bet...

I don't know though... anyone have a product # or name or know something else to use for the cheep grill inserts ??

I used the stainless steel gutter guards from Home Depot and painted them black after trimming them to fit.

I also gorilla glued the sides of the sticky squares for a little EXTRA holding power.

So April 14 is no good for me unless it's in the afternoon.. And the 28/29 won't work. Other than that I am good.

I have a list of things I have been putting off in anticipation of warmer weather..
