    I may be bias, but the Sky Silver is sexy!

    Thanks again @JLee! I didn't enjoy the wait, but it was worth every minute!

    Found Permatex (60 sec epoxy) in the garage which i used on a broken pastic tab on a furnace turbine part few months ago. Held super strong on that so i have high hopes for this.
    Held it for few min then placed a kids chair with a lil weight on it. Leaving it over night.

    You're grille looks like someone painted chicken wire and shoved it in there. No design elements, not original at all, and has been done on thousands of vehicles since the 1980s. Why'd you copy everyone else? You could of had a 1 off production that only people here have?


    Now that I'm done being a dick, you like what you like in your truck, we like what we like. I didn't come into your thread and trash your grille,you came into this house looking for a fight.

    Enjoy the truck, taco on.
