I'd be down for it, but I can't afford a repaint right now to match my truck.

I wish I had a GMC, little better looking in my mind, just wasnt able to find any when I was looking. Heck up here a regular cab V-8 was almost impossible. The one I bought was the only reg cab V-8 I found in a month, didnt even see any 4x4 reg cabs....

Wilde- Just out of curiousity, how long you wanna wait to change? I just talked to my painter and he said I'd be looking at about $600 to paint the fenders and hood. Don't have the funds right now, but it's possible that I'll have that in a couple months after I start my new job.

FWIW, does anyone know if the inner fenders and headlight mounts would have to be changed? I was figuring that it was just the outer fenders, hood, grill, bumper and headlights that would need to be changed.

Have you seen my grill, lol in the words of Rosco P. Coltrane, ugly ugly ugly.

I do have the stock corner lenses, and grill insert.
