Wink Shavin the ***....

I drop my truck off tonight to get my tailgate and stake pockets shaved. I am also getting my rollpan installed (welded, molded, painted). I will get it back Sunday night or Monday morning....so as soon as I get it back i'll post up some pictures. I am pretty excited about how its going to look so I will be sure to let you guys see.

And I should have my 24's as soon as I can sell these 22's. I had a guy who make me end my Ebay Auction early cause he said he was going to buy them and come pick them up....and now he has been BSIng me for the past 3 days. So as soon as I get them sold I will grab my 24's from my buddy and put them on.

That does sound a bit high. You do get what you pay for. I paid 350 earlier this summer while (I was home on leave) for paint on my cowl hood and my 06 smooth bumper pad. Not the best work. Looks good but Im extremely **** when it comes to work done. I am a Helicopter mechanic for the Marine Corps so I guess that has a bit to do with it.

I dont see how shaving the tailgate, molding the rollpan, and painting it all is expensive for $600. I thought that was pretty cheap.....
