Welcome aboard! Glad you found us... finally....

I see you are in Virginia - where? I spent many years back in the NOVA area (Leesburg) until a little over a year ago.... Post some pix of your motoring machine if you get a chance...:smile:

mudflap,

Aloha and welcome to NAM.
Do you have mudflaps yet? For the MCS only the fronts are available, for the MC front and back are optional.

What other mods are you thinking of? Just let us know.

How about a picture?

And if you've been in Ashburn for a while - don't know if you ever got, read, or looked at photo bylines in the Loudoun Times Mirror - my hubby was the Chief Photographer there for quite a number of years (Michael Kacmarcik). Our kiddos are still back there... We hope to make it back for a visit next year... Maybe we'll get a chance to meet...:smile:
