    I'd have to agree with a lot of the guys. you probably have one of the best looking '12s on here. i love my 2012 as it is but seeing the stuff the guys do on here, my bank account is quivering, haha. was the retrofit pretty hard to do?

    Awesome truck man really nice and clean and I think I like the BHLM on the 2012 even better then the old ones. Also when i first saw the new front ends I almost didn't like them but they grew on me and with BHLM I think its better. Thought what kind of paint did you use for you BHLM? flat, gloss, fusion, ect?
