It is still work in progress i'm thinking of painting the grill yet and getting rid of the chrome mirror caps and paint the tailgate handle black when my roll pan arrives. But here she is....still work in progress.

Thumbs up

Not too crazy about the front, but other that that, looks good.
Will look great once you lower it. (I noticed it's in the "to do" list!)

Im not to crazy about the front end either....ive been slowly changing things since i bought it. The front end was like that when i bought it, i think the next project is to pull the grill out and paint it..... i think it will clean it up a bit.

Sweet truck, but lose the flame grille and chrome tailgate handle .

Id do a speed grille to go with your SS bumper cover.

Will look **** after those mods.

Update:

Painted the Grill, removed the stainless flame inserts and polished the billet specialties Bowtie. Then painted the tailgate handle insert and the chrome third brake light cover.

It's getting there slowly, i have a set of mirror covers on order so when they come in i will paint them black also.

What you think?
