    Nice job! What is that Jimmy, the Lowe's "peel and stick"? I'll need to do that eventually...

    heck, my sound deadener weighs a lot less. It's called 2 ear plugs. Now that I'm back from the Gathering I guess I'll go ahead and put the mufflers back on too. J/K:) Looks great. What stuff did you use Jimmy.?
