    Or people will be commenting how the plasti dip looks like crap after Texas summer of baking in the parking lots while they are at work. I'm thinking a thin layer of "rubber" on top of a sheet of metal is going to take a beating from the +100 degree heat around here. Nice in tight in the winter... looks like a bad streched out boob job come August. :eek:

    I did my bumper because it was a helluva lot easier than messing with vinyl. I originally had a chrome grill and painted it gloss black. After I did the bumper, it looked odd with the matte bumper and gloss grill. Plus due to Texas roads and road construction, the grill chipped easily from rocks. So I decided to do the grill to match the bumper and I figured it would hold up better to rock chips. I also did my Grillcraft inserts. Then I did the rear bumper to get rid of the chrome. I did the hood just to see what it would look like, but ended up taking it off. Here is how she sits today:

    About 850 not including selling my prerunner parts.

    Not guaranteed at the moment, gotta make sure the front diff has the same gears. :D

    Hey guys, when you fill up the tank about how many miles do you get when you hit the half way mark? I'm sure I could have made it to 200 miles right on the mark...

    Ya, woops, forgot to mention that part. Ha. 90 percent of half the tank in above pic was driven on highway.

    I went to Enchanted Rock yesterday, stopped at a bakery in Fredericksburg on the way back. Nice little town.
