    Hey guys,

    i got a 2006 crew cab that im fixin up to sell. I've accumulated a few bumps that i havent had time to deal with until now! So i had some front end damage, some i had when i bought it, some i added to in some winter storms.

    So anyways here's what i'm doing,

    -bought a new bumper cover here:

    i need to paint it. I've seen a few people on here buy the spray paint of their truck color, but i'm a bit hesitant. should i just shell the cash out and get it painted by a shop?

    (sorry my pics are so large)

    -bought a new reinforcement bar here:

    should be pretty easy to install this guy. hopefully i didn't bend the attaching arms.

    -New Headlights:

    Hopefully these guys work out. i cracked my old ones on the passenger side. (anyone can pm me and i can send em to you for a lil cash)

    So i guess what i'm sayin is... what's your suggestion for painting? (black sand) and would anyone want my original headlights? (driver side good, could use some restoration from the hazing on the headlights, but they work great.)
    Also, I've noticed these trucks have been holding their value great lately. (i have to sell mine due to a financial situation) what do you think i should list my truck at? i'm thinkin $17,500 and see what offers i get. realistically sell around 16,000 ( 145k miles, 2006, crew cab, towing, aux input, 4x4)
