PS. It's time to clean out those gutters on the house.

Yeah man I love it! It's a cheap way to personalize and show some personality.

LMFAO!!!! I just moved in like two days ago! But I was weed eating and looked up and thought "I wonder if I should just take my weed eater to the gutter?" lol

Not at all! Just search "grill mod" and you'll find a good write up. But it took about 2 minutes to get the grill off. Then I cleaned it, sanded lighted (just enough to rough it up) cleaned again with soap and water. Let it dry and did three coats with Rustolyem (sp) flat black, high heat.

$7 for 100' of 550 cord, a few D-rings that I had laying around and a few hours of time... A decent net that will keep the dogs in while cruising with the tops off.



No creeping out of the bottom either!
