I think thewhiteford's chameleon grille would look really great on a "red" truck.

I'd swear I saw a truck with that EXACT grill driving around here.

It's all gone now, just in time to get another 10-20cm (5-10") this weekend.

The grill looks great! Really like the way you painted the two smaller vents on the sides, too. It would be a shame to kill the chrome parts; promise you won't paint them...
As far as shooting the air dam, I'm on the fence there; it might be worth a try... but I'd have to see it to say for sure. Are you doing the mirrors next? That would really set the truck off niceily. Just remember not to pain the reflective part.

Think I'll leave the front dam for now.

Edit: Maybe I'll mount a "Line of Fire" across the air dam

I'd really appreciate seeing some pix. It took me a long time to decide to do this and seeing a finished product first would've helped a lot.
Thanks.
