Looks good, thanks for the pic Smokin'. Has anyone seen a red 250 with black bumpers, or does it start to look like a work truck?

That's sexy. *grin* Thanks Adam. That's exactly what I had in mind. (Already started bugging my local dealership for 05 parts.) Is this one yours?

Although it's almost off topic - someone found the HD lights online if anyone is looking for them.

Steps are brushed aluminum and they are paintable, so I've thought about it. I also want to eventually replace the bumper with a black one.

That looks sweet. When I was shopping for wheels, I considered those wheels. Those are American Racing rims, right?

I believe I am going to try this one day because mine is looking rough and it will give a better back ground to my overlay.

Does anybody know who's truck this is? I like the red and black more every time I see it. Would love to offer compliments to whoever built it. On a different note, has anyone seen the 'black chrome speed grill' replacements in person? (I was wondering if they looked as clean in person as a quality billet) :-)

I went ahead and painted grill same as body color masking out for the existing chrome only. Didn't want to much chrome to run together, been there done that once before on a motorcycle with chromitist.
