    I like it. I personally don't like speedway blue at all, but I'm sort of a fan of two-tone speedway blue + black.

    I dig it in a serious way...I've been pondering doing the same thing to mine when I get my bumpers.

    This pretty much seals it up- I will be. Probably keep it a bit lower on the doors...but this is a good visual to see!!!

    Good on you!!

    I think if you would have went along the lower body line it would have looked better.

    props for trying something new!

    brand new? under the liner..but what's the point? it's UNDER the liner.

    i think it's too high up the side of the truck. but damn..looks well done. a clay bar and wax job will now be 40% quicker!

    Looks neat...but damn, you should've just painted it gloss black (paint).

    Everytime I see someone painting their truck with Herculiner, I CRINGE.

    THat stuff will fade, gets pitted, and wears off when exposed to the elements. You'll be repainting it in 3-5 years.
