Which dupli color paint? Thanks BTW

Medium gray and gloss black, designed for interior plastics.

Good looking build!!!

Where did u get the seats, they look pretty nice. What brand are they so I can do some research.

Thanks!

I went with these. I waited a long time trying to find some black leather super duty seats but never could find them at a decent price. I am pretty impressed with these so far. The leather is nicer and softer then what I had in my 08 250.

Interior looks excellent! If the painted dash pieces start to scratch or peel, take it back down to the bare plastic and try using an adhesion promotor first, then prime and paint.

Thanks for the tip

Love the seats!! What kind are they?

Thanks. See above for link.

Thanks. Denton is about 25-30 miles away from me depending on where you are in Denton.


Now I really need some black seat belts.

This is a DJM kit. 3-5"

You could run 22's with the right tires. I wanted to run 22's originally, but they weren't in the budget this time around. Maybe later when I get tired of these wheels.

Dude that is such a sweet build, as Im seeing more of these being built...I cant wait to do my shorty project! Wont be for a while though

Looks so awesome dude, I wonder what it'd look like if you painted that orange off the wheels as a two tone, orange being the bottom and black on top...someone photoshop it!!!

Its red not orange.

No way I would do a orange and black two tone truck. To many people would make comments about it being a HD.

I was looking at the jdm kit for my truck and i would ether run 20's or 22's but i dont want to get the 22's and have them be a little to big and rub, but from the pics you posted it look's like i should be ok. Did your truck sag a little in the front b4 the lowerring kit. Im scared it will lower the front to much. Any ways nice build truck looks good.

I dont think it sagged much up front. I dont really know though. The lowering kit went on pretty quick after getting it.

EBAY actually. They are Ballistic Enigma.

Is that Duramax in your avatar yours? If so that thing is pretty kick @ss.

My bad, i thought it was orange.

No biggie. Lance (stroke of luck) still thinks its orange and he has seen the truck in person.

Yes its mine and thank you. I want to do a djm 3/5 on my truck but I won't be able to turn with my 30x14 cheater slicks.

Please don't paint that beautiful truck blue (or anything shiny...). I woud just get a flattening agent put in the black paint when you have the cash for a real paint job. The flat black and red looks SO awesome. If you were into it, a little custom red striping (like old school) would look amazing. Very few modern rigs can pull off the Rat Rod look, but that truck is SICK.

I thought about doing a red pin stripe. That would look killer in an old school style.

 

[littleredstroker]

yes on red pinstripe.
personally I have never liked the lowered trucks cause they are not functional for what i would use them for... but this Sir look outstanding. good job for a weekend warrior without a shop

 

[JMart]

a little update on it

 

[SouthFlstrokin']

I see you got another paint job

 

[JMart]

It's hard to tell, but there are 4 different things shaved in that picture.

 

[SouthFlstrokin']

I see shaved handles, and badges... What else
