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) :-)
