    Probably too late now, but I used a router to put holes in the drawer faces. No parts to rattle of clang, fits fingers perfectly and saves a minuscule amount of weight.

    Thanks
    Once I get all my suspension parts and installed I think I will chop the flares down a bit and go 35” tires so the flares will still be bolted down to the fenders

    Yeah the bushwackers
    I don’t know a lot of ppl tell me to do them black almost everyone I know
    Since the stock were color matched I thought I would color match those and when I was doing that I did the mirrors, grill and handles at the same time
    So I might have to see how they will look black

    Good call, my vote is keep it color matched looks great, Ive got the stuff to do my grill and handles, i just gotta wait for the temp to get back up above 50 here

    I got everything sanded down and and sprayed some primer on it except the grill I heard chrome need more work otherwise paint starts to peel
    So I went to a local paint shop and they charged me 50$ to do my grill and they let me use their paint booth to paint all my parts And clear coat them it’s been like 3-4 years now still holding strong
    U can’t see in the pics but they have a lot of pin stripes by now from service roads I’ll have to buff the truck one of those days to see if it will fix it

    To paint plastic, plastic chrome, and steel that's been chromed use DTM primer and it'll last for a long time.

    Thanks. Got those tools and have already run some wire for bed lights through the firewall. I did get it from Bob. Doesn't look too bad.

    That’s looking pretty sweet man. Thanks for taking those. Do you think you’ll match the front with the Rear McNeil glass?
