Got new tires, 295-30-24






Recessed the billet insert in the grill shell


Today at work


Painted the cluster same as the truck


Did the trim pieces and window switches the same way


Let me know what you think. Anything you would change or add to it? Im doing the 2012 HD Denali paintable front bumper and black valence next week. I should have that on by the middle of next month I hope.

 

Looks good,clean!
roll pan makes your *** look flat,i dont like a flat ***!LOL

 

Looks good man, I would leave it as is.

 

I like a little more shape myself, but not much to do with it when your working with a barn door for a tailgate! lol

 

Truck looks sharp. I think clearing the headlights would look great with what you have already done to the front end.

I like how you recessed the grill though, that's a nice subtle detail that makes it look really good.

 

The headlights are coming soon. I have an extra set me and Skipperdaddy are gonna experiment with on getting the lens off and going back together like stock. The grill took a little time to do. I had to fab up my own brackets to get it set back like it is, plus trim about 1/2 inch off each side to get it to fit right.

 

Time well spent on the grill IMO


I have seen people cut the lights open which I really don't think is necessary. You can bake them in the oven for about 10 minutes at 200 degrees and should be able to pry them back apart. Not sure if you can heat them up again to put them back together though, might want to use some sealant when you do that.



I might clear mine soon since I will have the front of my truck torn apart for another project.

 

Thanks!

I dont want to cut them open. I want to keep it looking like they have never been touched, even if the hood is open and you can see the seals. Im gonna put one in the oven this week and see how it turns out. Then, when I do the HD front, Ill try doing the ones on the truck now.

 

Check this thread out. Ideally I would love to kind of take what he did and put a few twists on it.

Anyways, he just baked his headlights and worked well for him.

Interior parts look perfect. How did you paint them, rattle can or spray gun?
