I like that Mike. Yours looks "shinier" than mine. What paint did you use?

I have a red SD also, and was wondering if anyone had pics of a color matched grill... or a black grill on a red truck. I'd eventually like to swap for the 05, but it'd be fun to make it look a little cleaner until then.

That looks good with your wheel/tire combo Lisa. Are your steps chrome? Hard to tell in the picture. Those would look good painted black also.
