Wild, custom trucks will last only so long, but a nice, clean, simple one will last far longer... and look cooler, too.

Truck looks good.

All the paint work and smoothing of the bumpers was done by a friend of mine who owns a local body shop. The mirrors are Streetscene cal-vue's. I installed everything after it was painted, pritty staight foward..not hard at all. Ive taken so much on and off the truck, it becomes mindless after a while.

thanks for all the complements guys.

From what I helped out with during the process, it was a pain in the *** to smooth the texture out. It kept melting on itself and took longer because it was all hand sanded. But the end result was well worth it.
So far it has held up well, except for my lower valance. I scuffed it bottoming out a few times, but what do you expect with a 4/6 drop once in a while. I was actually getting ready to pull it in the next week or so and re-painting it now that the truck sits a little higher in the front end.
