    I'm thinking about Plasti-Dipping my factory wheels black with glossifier. Black on black. Then maybe blacking out the badges and eventually the head/tail lights. Kinda worried that it will be too much.

    Personally I love the black on black. It looks great in my opinion. I would go with all black and a sweet projector headlight or something. It'll look sharp whatever you do though.

    Finished installing my @mattgecko lights on my @HomerTaco grille. Grille and interior lights tied together. Trucks a mess inside between work gear and kids stuff so the interior pics don't quite do it justice

    Hopefully mounting these this weekend. Was just gonna do it the regular way but this seems better with the gapping hole in these things! Is that a rectangular washer in the upper part of frame bump pad?

    You end up mounting your bumps this way? Pretty easy to line bump up with strike plate if so?

    There is a little gap from the aft uprights back to the corners by the tailgate. The gaps probably depend on where the uprights are installed and what type of cover you have. I have them installed as far forward and aft as I can on the bed rails to accommodate my bikes. Nothing a little stick on weather stripping can't take care of.

    Patches, decals, t-shirts ... everything! Still trying to work out all of the behind-the-scenes things for that to happen though.

    Here are my alignment numbers. Technician stated that around 4 is the best for a lifted truck and handling at higher speeds and i cant disagree. Drove 4 hours down the highway yesterday and it handles like a dream. Any more inputs??
