    I don't know if it's best to rattle can it, do plasti dip, or use bedliner or something like that. I just don't want a chrome bumper anymore

    oh I forgot to tell you that I don't sit all gangsta like for the overhead switch I would just have to turn my head a little to see the toggles. that got me thinking though... can we switch the temp gauge and sunglasses part? they looked to be about the same size

    another thought this morning was to fully customize it and move the temp readout completely (just the display and tuck the board somewhere else), closer to the window so you could have two openings for switches...

    My idea is to drop it down a little more, and have my CB radio up there, switches but all as a drop down like the sun glass storage. Remove the Factory lighting and go with 2 smaller led
