Replaced chrome badges with Sockmonkey black badges, painted billet grill black, K&N cold air intake, my corner light turn signal circuit, Speedfreek traction bars, RAAMaudio BXT/Ensolite, Stereo: Kenwood KIV-701 USB/Bluetooth deck, 10" Pioneer shallow sub behind the rear seat, Infinity 6822cf 6x8 front and rear doors, Fosgate P400-2 (sub), US Acoustics USX-4065 (four main speakers)

Awesome job on color matching the grill surround. Looks like you did it yourself. Did you buy paint to match or just go with a white that is close?

Did the rattle can technique here. Matched it as close as possible and it is only a shade or so off. You really can't see much difference. But it sure looks a lot better than the chrome. I will be doing the bumpers soon.

Thanks all. Now I just need to sell the stock wheels w/ tires or trade for a decent lift kit. I really want to go 6" but think I may have to settle with a 3". Time will tell.
