    Oh that sucks. I didn't know that they changed them.

    yeah I know. One of the brackets is broken (that's how the truck was when I got it) and that's as good as it gets. :/

    Hahah yeah I'm not sure what I'm going to do about the front bumper anymore..

    I saw your new build pics.. the new suspension looks great man! I'll have to take a look at it sometime.

    He had a little bit of lift on it. I don't remember how much exactly.. I think it was like 3 inches but I'm not sure.

    Glad I could help!

Inside, 4 crappy 15's, suede wrapped headliner and door panel inserts, alpine double din, few painted pieces inside, and every led is either blue or white.
    Nice, I have been meaning to get some color matched handles from my truck. Did you get them from the dealer or where?

    The latest update on my truck is color matched mirrors and a shaved tailgate. There will be more pics coming soon once it finally stops raining and I can wash it and take pictures.

    Love those wheels. I wanted a set so bad, some years ago. I always wondered what they would look like kn a BSP. Now i know. Haven't been one way or another on the RBP style grills, but your truck pulls it off well. I actually though for a moment, at the first pic, that your truck was a model truck for RBP.

    Good job man! Should come out to a meet sometime, where some friends and I meet up. Like to check out the ride.

    Do it!! It's one of those things that after you do it you're like why didn't I do this sooner?

    Haha thanks man! Glad you like it.

    I appreciate it! Yeah for sure. Just message me with details and everything and I'll try to make it out.

    Thanks! :)

    Sorry it's been raining no stop for the past week so I haven't been able to get any pics of the tailgate until today. Oh and got a new license plate :)

    So sexy, can you explain the push button? I've seen a ton of shaved tailgates but have never seen anyone do that before which surprises me.

    Yeah most of them will just have the handle relocated but supposedly Chaotic came up with this button and got it patented so that's why only they use it. But yeah you just push it in and it releases the tailgate just like the handle would. It's just a mechanical piece so you do have to push it pretty hard haha.

    hmm ok, I like the idea a lot. I've never looked inside the tailgate of our trucks but I'm sure it looks like any other rod system. I'm curious as too exactly how it's hooked up though.
