Thanks! I was really pleased with how it came out, and the powder i bought is UV stable so it wont fade, like some of these others do.

I found those fogs on Amazon, and i just ordered them!


Why replace something you can just fix for less than 10 bucks! I taped everything up, scuffed it up with a painters scotch-brite (the burgundy one), took a microfiber with rubbing alcohol on it, wiped it down very very well. scuffed it again, wiped it down again and painted. I just used dupli-color trim paint.

And it looks awesome! I did my bed rails too when my tool box was off. I will say this, it really messes with you when you first do it because your not use to seeing it so dark and clean looking, but give it time, youll love it.

Thanks! Yes, I have read about the headlights not being the greatest but I have had them for about 3 months now and I haven't had any issues with them at all.

I need to consider the powder and painting the bed rails but I have a nice hole where the previous owner hit something at the end of the frame.

Glad you found the lights. They really are the only option if you want to keep the stock look in my opinion.

My newest favorites, there's just something about how the sunlight is hitting. And yes, she needs a bath very badly.
