    Thank You. Plastidip is your friend :thumbsup:

    My wheels are plastidipped. I put on 3 or 4 coats of black, then 3 coats of graphite metalizer. I am pleased with the results. Easy removal, not permanent, and is tough. it costs like $7 bucks a can at lowes or HD, but the graphite I had to get from dipyourcar.com. I wanted something other than black, but black looks great also.

    edit, also dipped my rear chrome bumper in black, holding up great.

    Summit Racing has a nice mat for about 65 bucks delivered. I have a DCSB and had to trim the front of the mat with a box knife. The place to cut is already marked on the mat. If you have a 6 foot bed it would be a straight drop in.

    If you want side steps that actually function... as a step... do something like the N-Fabs or Rhino's. The typical sideboard is hard to actually put your foot into and doesn't really provide you with a step much lower than cab height.

    I put those exact ones on my truck and hated them. N-fab side steps were definately not for me. They just ended up in the way like all the others. And when it rained and they were wet, forget it. They were way to slick.

    Installed them and took them off within a day. Hated them.
