New Paint and Mods

Whats up guys! havnt been to active on here lately, been real busy, especially busy working on this truck. Ive been wanting to paint this thing since I bought it 2 years ago, finally got around to doing it, It was a pretty big project, it had alot of (not so good) previous body work in it, so I had to re-do it all, and do it right. Also have all my 05 and 08 parts installed, 08 mirrors,tailgate, rear bumper, diff cover tail lights. 05 grill and headlights. Now back to modding the engine some more! It was orginally grey with black on the bottom, wanted something different. Let me know what ya think.

That is awesome Adam. Man its been awhile. Wow I have never seen a truck quite like that. Your hard work has payed off. So how many hours have you put in to this truck? Are you liking the results so far? . Once again congrats on a job well done.

Before Pic







I put a used door on the passenger side because the orginal one was starting to rust on the bottom, the used door had been wrecked but it was free and I was able to straighten it.

the new paint looks great. I really like the contrastbetween the grey and white.

If you had not painted it we would have had to make fun of you for the stick on air vents
