Very true statement. As for Bart's planning, designing and blah blah blah, that is definitely not my style. I am more of a doer...obviously. It has also givin me something to do for the last few months on the weekend mornings before the family is up and about. Basically, from 0630 to 0930, I play in the garage with my toys. Then its off to the aquarium or whatever with the wife and kids.
As for raping my VX, I did not modify the VX itself, so if it really had to go back to stock, it could, so more of a molestation than a rape. I would have to fab some brackets for a few things that were rusted beyond repair...no biggie.

This whole project started after seeing the junk factory tube crumble when I went to replace my horn.
I had access to the materials for free (tubing) so figured, why not.

I picked up the gasket material for the lights on the way home from Day of Caring volunteer event I worked on. The bedliner is done. So I should be able to finish the barbaric raping device before lunch. I will make a video at night of the lights.
