Default Debadged my '05

Haven't posted up in this section in a long time so I figured I post up a pic of my '05 after pulling the moldings and emblems and then clay bar and wax.



I was originally just going to leave this truck alone but that didn't last long. Since that pic was taken I've added a chrome bow-tie and a tonneau cover. Looking at replacing the towing mirrors with the power folding mirrors and having them painted to match. After that it will probably be some power mods in the form of either headers or cat back exhaust. I forgot how fun and expensive this hobby can be.

Very clean look, I like the door handles... I'm not to worried about looks, but I might look into doing some chrome handles..

What brand truck is that? I still have the little LS badges on mine. Don't know why but I like them.

Thanks for all the comments guys.

Future plans might also include a mild lift and definitely some more aggressive tread before winter hits again. Those wranglers are ok but not the most confidence inspiring tires in the snow and on ice. I won't go as far as I did with my 99 but I'll play with this one a bit. Being laid off for 6 months kind of puts a limit on what I can do.

Roger, I left the LS badges for that very same reason.
