I like how his paint flows where as your front bumper breaks the tan up.... His color runs right through. Just opinion.

My truck went from this

To this

Then this

Then this

This thing looks freaking awesome! Only thing I would change is swap the colors on the bumper. Pretty much how I have mine. Makes things look a lot cleaner. IMO the way it is painted now it an eyesore lol and it's all I can look at. Really pops to me...

for reference:

Thanks but its weird for me having the tan stop then start again. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

three questions, how did you paint the chrome on the grille? what did you use and how did you paint your front bumper, and did you bake your headlights and paint the inside? or are those aftermarket? my dad's '12 needs these mods!!

damn i love your truck!!!

It's a ptm surrounding and the bumper was a ptm bumper and the headlights were painted by jd on here.

You could always continue the tan of the flare onto the bumper pad so the tan never stops... That would be the ideal way to do it and also how I want to redo mine...

Looks like petey (rocket7.3) is headed down from ct in the morning to help me work on swagger for a few days. Got the call this afternoon that the clip is cut out of the donor at the yard so we will be headed there tomorrow to pick it up.
I'm pretty stoked about this
