It's actually called a t50 torxbit, the security version of the same would have an indent in the center of the star, like on the radio and speaker screws. The seat bolts don't need this as they don't have the "security"pin in the middle. Not trying to be picky but the security torx bit will cost more.

pump the guards out a bit. my tyres are stuffed on the inside cause i need a camber kit, and it makes it ride like a bucket of s**t cause of the way it wears.

Cool, I spose that I'm thinkin bout how much the kingchrome set cost, not thinkin that u can get half reasonable ones at 1/4 the price. But then I use mine on an almost daily basis for work. :roll: so they need to last.

Today I modified the snake stickers I purchased to try to not have them look like a cobra logo. They are bigger then I ordered and I have the correct size on the way, but what do people think? should I keep the bigger ones or put smaller ones on?

I agree the snake looks out of place on a Falcon. So does the Pioneer sticker. If you like it though that's all that matters.
