I just don't get the blacked out look. To me, it doesn't look cool, just cheap.

I guess it's one of those things where "if you have to have it explained, you'll never understand" .....

Black is to the 2000s what chrome was the 50s and 60s basically.

Glad your truck isnt orange. It would look like a sad Jack O Lantern. Not a bad job though.

That was the first thing that my GF said about it when I showed her. She said it looked sad.

Well, my darling and I said goodbye for the last time. She was smashed into by a distracted driver and had the frame bent a little, along side a bent wheel and smashed box.

The damage doesn't look nearly as bad as it is, which was really upsetting to be told.

I'll get some pictures later on today. The insurance adjuster is figuring my additional worth with modifications and whatnot.
