Looks good. I think that's the first time I've seen someone switch out the stock headlight switch.

Here is a close up for you. Couldn't have a headlight switch not matching the others.

This is one purty truck! I got the honor to sit behind the wheel and go for a spin and you need to cary a set of tooth picks to pick your eyeballs back into place from the back of your head!

After waiting a few couple weeks for my emblem to get here it came unpainted....The I should be red...





Took it to the local powder coating and was a no go....
So I searched a bit and came up with resin with acrylic enamel red to color it then used a syringe to apply it

Tony the emblem turned out sweet !! Now is your truck black? If so next I would go with smoked cab lights and blacked out headlights. It would round off the front end. Here is mine I wish I would have done the black H/D headlights.

That is a good looking truck! I have always liked that color but they are hard to find and I have never even seen a dually that color. With that color you could go either way when you get around to doing the lights clear or black. Heck just about everything would look good on that truck. By the way how did you get rust down south there?? Or did you get your truck from up here in the arm pit of the nation?
