One piece of the puzzle has been fitted and is ready for paint. Today the headlights will be coming out.

Got it all mounted and the center has fresh black paint the ends will be ptm. I just went ahead and bought another set of headlights to do my magic on because these ones are too far gone.

You can just throw this bumper on and the width is perfect but it sticks out too far so I cut it in a bunch of places and flattened the curve out and pulled the corners in.

So a lot has changed and I'm no longer getting specialty forged wheels for the centurion because I used the wheel fund money to put a transmission in my 2002. But I did find some 22's for it that I picked up for basically nothing and I'll throw them on when I get them to my house which will be in about two weeks. Not sure if I'm in love with them but at least I will see how 22's look on it.

Well I finally got the wheels they're 22x10 ultra goliath with 285 45 22 bridgestone tires and some crazy positive offset. They are sucked in pretty good so now I'm looking into spacers and not real thrilled about having to run them but it is what it is. I will probably end up with 1.75" up front and 2.5" out back to even the width front to back. I was also not a big fan of the machined accents so I took a can of plastidip to them and half *** sprayed them and now they look 100x better. I think I will go ahead and paint the entire face black and ptm the inside of them. But overall for $300 with tires that still have 60%+ tread on them I'm super happy and once those tires are done I will throw some 305 420s on it. Anyway here's a picture. (Don't mind the filthy truck)
