    True. I was going to have my logo all black, but they only had the black/red left when I ordered. I kinda like how it ended up though haha

    yeah... i couldnt justify doing bumpers, gears, etc right now. i love wheeling, and do it as much as i can.. and pretty hard for what the truck is capable of and how its set up now, but not enough to justify the extra money, time, hassle, etc. plus, i really love the look of the truck now. clean, simple.. it turns heads and i love it! :D

    yes! S/C is definitely in the long term plan. lol besides the stuff mentioned above, tires will be there as well as a S/C, headers, and gears.. but WAY down the road.

    and talk about beast.. yours looks great man! we need a mod day so we can finish the stuff we have waiting to be installed or modded. lol

    Good Luck with the seats man, Post pictures as soon as you get them. If you dont end up buying there clean condition kit, Go with Lexol Cleaner and Conditioner. Best leather product ive ever used and thats all ive had in my past three vehicles.

    I think this is the best color option. As a general rule, you should follow the color of the seats like in this truck with the gray. I like the inserts in black, but it may also look good with a charcoal gray or a darker contrasting gray with the stock light gray. Just an idea...

    Kinda like mine but a little different, I didnt do gray all the way up just the butt pad and the lower back support. The rest i did black. Including the armrests. I left the center console stock

    What did you use to paint them? Was it difficult? How is it holding up?

    The best product to use in the plastic is from a company called sem you can get colors matched to any factory I terror color on he market and if you use the plastic prep they sell it soaks into the plastic very well. Not usually in stores though I buy it from an upholstery supply wholesale company called keyston brothers.

    Is that the Katzkin or Clazzio? Could you send a pic of the seats including the bases of the front seats? I want to see how it looks with the grey base. This is what I plan on getting soon.

    Its not hard man I did mine when I had the front seats pulled out. There are a coulple clips and and screws that hold them on just undo all of them and pull them off. I painted them with krylon fusion satin black spray paint but you can use what ever you want.
