    good looking truck Jeff. Question for you: what did you use to paint your bumper? white plasti dip? Was it a pain in the ass taking all the plastic off to paint? I was thinking of doing my bumper but just taping off all the plastic. Your thoughts? I will have to take the bumper off to put a new hitch on my truck so that should make it a bit easier to paint (I hope).

    no i actually rattle can...(got it color matched super white from dealer). and clear coated it I took all plastics and bolts off.. i seperated the tow hitch from bumper so it made it less bulky.. what i would recommend is honestly since it was such a pain in the rear... I would get it powder coated..then don't have to deal with the hassle..but yes i'm happy with it..lol
