    NICE! That's pretty damn awesome. I have seen the mustang that was used in the first movie as barricade, on ebay. If I had the money, it would be mine.

    The bedside decals were designed by me, with some inspiration from someone on here who had some that said zombie response unit. I wanted them to look as stock as possible. The bedside decals and the drivers side mirror sticker were printed by www.reflectiveconcepts.com All the red parts on the bedside decals are reflective.
    I actually wanted the whole truck to look as factory as possible.
    The front grill emblem and the skid plate are from metalmiller on here. the skid plate logo was cutout with his water jet I believe. The emblems on the front doors I just got off ebay.

    Yeah. I could take it off I guess. It's been on there 7 years, so I assume it would leave behind unfaded paint. lol.
