Custom Grilles

 The other day on Instagram I came across these. These are custom handmade grilles for trucks. The business that manufactures these makes grilles makes them for a truck or car of any year, you just have to contact them. You can even get custom side logos for your truck. They have a variety of finishes and colors. You can choose whether your custom grille has LED lights or spikes. There are many options to choose from! They might look like they empty your wallet but it all depends on how fancy you order it and how many accessories you put on your grille. As you can see when you scroll through the pictures you can have a white with chrome grille while making your spikes blue. The custom grilles below were ordered for Fords, Rams, Chevys, and Cadillac.

2015 Dodge Challenger Hellcat



Enough about trucks, its time to take a break. Lets talk about the most powerful muscle car ever. Introducing the 2015 Dodge Challenger Hellcat!
It is the most powerful muscle car ever with a total of 707 horsepower. It is also the fastest muscle car with a 10.8 second 1/4 mile@126 with NHRA certified street legal drag radial tires. With production tires the hellcat has a NHRA certified time of 11.2 second 1/4 mile@125.
What you are looking at are the keys that unleash the power to a sleeping beast. The black key limits the hellcat to only 500 hp. On the other hand the red key unleashes the beast to the full 707 hp.


The hell cat can go from 0-60 in the low 3 second range.


These are some of the color options that the hellcat is available in.




The hellcats top speed is 199 mph.
This is the most powerful production V8 engine ever. The 6.2L Supercharged HEMI V8 Hellcat Engine. 707 Horsepower, 650 lb.-ft torque.

Headers

Today we are going to to talk about different kinds of mufflers, long tube and short tube headers. First we are going to talk about how long and short tube headers. Headers are the first stop for exhaust gases on the way out of your engine. The two styles of headers boost performance at different RPMs. You will figure out how to choose the correct one that benefits your ride. Long tube headers are the best at building horsepower from mid to high RPMs. They also do the best job in building torque from mid to high RPMs. Long tube headers are best for street machines but they sacrifice low RPM power that many drivers need.



Now its time to talk about short tube headers. Shorty headers produce more horsepower and torque from the idle to the mid RPM range. These headers are perfect for the daily commute or hauling something up a hill. Sometimes short tubes can be easier to install. 



Take some time to think about the type of driving you do. Guys looking for an efficient exhaust system and killer acceleration are probably running bigger engines. If your running a smaller engine or lighter ride, a shorty setup is what you need.

LED Light bars& LED products


Today we are going to talk about LED light bars and LED products. LED's are changing the way vehicles look. There are many different LED products out there! The products range from light bars, light strips, bulbs, an many more. LED's come in many different colors and the brightness depends on how many lumens it is. LEDs can be extremely bright which help out in lighting up the road in dark nights or when its really foggy.
As you can see there are LED products for different type of vehicles! Also you can notice that the LED's are brighter than factory issued lights.

Custom Lug Nuts

Its time to talk about lug nuts. Factory issued lug nuts go perfect with the factory issued wheels but if your getting new wheels you might consider buying new lugs if they are rusted or custom lugs to match. In the picture below we have custom American Force wheels with custom lugs.

There are different designs and colors so don't worry about getting stuck with plain chrome lugs! Whether for a car or truck custom lugs add a nice touch to your wheels!

Another benefit of custom lugs is that depending on your style of lugs they might have a special key made for the lugs so you won't have to worry about someone stealing your wheels!
