In short, sand it down smooth as much as possible, and use a crapload of adhesion promoter. Otherwise paint it like a normal piece. Mine has held up almost a year this way, NO chips.

I'm a big fan of colormatched rear bumpers. Some like roll pans. It's a matter of personal preference. If you are getting rid of all chrome on your truck, colormatching will help. If you are keeping some chrome, leave it as is for now.

I like oakley, I think it looks good on my truck.

Thanks, I was thinking of going the roll pan route because it does give a clean flush look and they are reasonably cheap.

Don't think it looks very good. Especialy the first two pictures. It is your truck so I if you are happy that is what matters.

pdub-chlevy

Well I dont think yours looks very good IMO. Like I said different strokes for different folks. Exactly, and I do love my truck!

Damn that's some big *** wheels. But like they say to each his own. I vote color matched valence and bumper. Truck looks alright though. Just remember this is performance website

Thanks man, colored matched bumper and cover or just cover? I am going to do some performance mods also, just not trying to build a drag truck yah know? I am going to do a tune very soon.

Before you do any performance mods, you need to upgrade your brakes for safety. Your truck probably stops like a train with those GIANT wheels and stock brakes.

Did you change your gearing? I bet that thing is a taking off. What size tire are you running?

Ye I said the same thing when I first joined

im running the 305 30. The wheels arent that heavy, the truck stops fine. They didnt slow it down that much. I had 18s and 33" mud tires on it before, these weigh a little more.
