    Searched and didn't see this posted.

    Looking for a lockable solution to the two rear side storage areas in the bed. Anything out there? I'd rather not think of those as things I'm ok with getting stolen. Bed ties and tow cable get expensive!

    Mobtown, think they just had a sale on them too. Or you can do it yourself and convert the plastic using cam's.

    Sheesh. I'm discovering that everything aftermarket is expensive. I'll take the plastic door into Home Depot and ask a nice gentleman or lady to help me reinforce it and add a lock.

    Did you expect quality to be cheap? I just ordered Hondo Garage radio knobs. $25 for two. But they are quality.

    Someone should have warned you to check your wallet at the door when you signed up for this money pit...

    I already want to buy all the things! Trying to stay super practical and functional first. Plastidip the emblems and some nice rubber floor mats are next!

    Just plastidipped my rims, rear bumper, mirrors, door handles, front grill and emblems matte black. I put 6 coats of it on everything and freakin love it! Bought the plastidip as I was planning on just doing my rims, but became addicted to the stuff and sprayed everything that was Chrome. It's so easy to do and very cheap, cost me $45 Canadian!! I highly recommend it, and if you don't like it, you just peel it off.

    I'm planning on doing the grill chrome and rims too.

    I bought 2 cans, how much do you think I can get done? Probably not rims?

    I bought 6 cans, and had to crack open the fifth to finish it off, forgot, I also did the fog lights. I was told 4 cans to do the rims, but that was more than enough and my rims are 18"
