I'm not sure...talk to Eric at billetin.com and see what he can do but I doubt it! There is a place in town down from your work that uses that chrome chemical stuff that is applied with a spray gun and comes in various colors but it runs a little high plus they have a minimum shop fee! They sprayed some small pieces on my 93 in chrome if you want to see them lmk.

Here are some photos of a couple of things I have done lately and are doing soon. I redid my rear drop by taking out the bumpstop and lowering shackle and I put in 4 inch drop leafs with street performer shocks. I have tow bags to put on but I am waiting to figure out how to mount them since I bought a used kit for a flip kit and I ended up not doing that. I trying to contact the mfg and see if they can send me the other bracket. I put offset bushings in the front and lowered it a little more. I also put performer shocks on the front and then I added powerstop drilled and slotted rotors all around and cleaned up the calipers and brackets for better appearance! I also bought some DL3 mirrors from a member on here and got a used switch and they work great! Just need the pass. switch programmed and they are 100%. Last but not least I got a nitrous kit also from a member on here and hopefully that will be on by next weekend! Just going through and making sure I have everything and its all working like it needs to be! Thanks guys for the parts...you know who you are!

I'm really undecided about the front bumper...any opinions welcome! These are my options
Paint the top and bottom and leave the center chrome
Paint the whole thing to match the truck
I have a joe Gibbs bumper sitting in my garage that I originally bought for it but now I'm concerned I will tear it being low and all that I wanted to paint to match.
What ya think?
