    Painted 17" Wheels

    Hey all, anyone got a pic of any of the 17" Aluminum wheels painted? Especially Black? Just got the idea to paint my bumpers black, so if I got some nightshade for my tails with some black rims I think it would look pretty sick, especially with the 265/70R17s I got on.

    Fusion XTi

    Hey, I got a 2004 Explorer XLT that came stock with the 17" wheels. I want to give it more of an aggressive look and a bit more offroading capability without giving it a lift. I plan on giving it a lift in 2 years when my warranty is up, but until then, gotta keep the suspension stock. I was...

    Keyless Entry Code

    Is there a way to find the Keyless Entry code on a 2004 Explorer XLT apart from taking it to the dealership and paying $50 to get it hooked up to the computer? Any help would be great.
