Just ordered a new rear bumper. TrailFX, should be in this Friday!
Looks good! Will be nice to have the LED backup lights in the bumper. Beware in Canada with TrailFX. I bought step bars from them on my last truck. Didn't last a year and paint was peeling and started to rust. Was warrantied but they wanted me to remove both bars and send them away. Didn't want to do that, so just touched up the bad parts, which there were lots of, on my own. Wasn't impressed.

Thanks tomasulo, and that is good info to know. I'm still looking around for the best price on the LEDs, I think they look good and are very functional. I was planning on getting it Line-X'd next year, so I will see how this next Cdn winter treats it.
Well, technically yesterday... had the 4.2 in radio swapped with a Kenwood DMX7704S. I'm enjoying it so far. It seems to work well with Apple Car Play so no real need for a unit with navigation. I also like the gauge menu even though I'm not sure how often I'll use it.
Thanks sport. One day I'd like to have it professionally cleaned. Get rid of some of the water spots and oxidation. I don't have much practice with polishes, waxes, buffers, etc.
If you can rebuild the front end you can do your own detail....
For what you will pay some one to do it, you can almost buy the equipment.
And then there are some great how-to videos on you-turd.
I say go for it, and practice on the Mother in-laws car.....she will appreciate the results no matter how it turns out ! lol
Yeah, my hands have been on just about everything mechanically that this truck has to offer. I just don't wanna eff my paint up...
I've seen bad wax/polish jobs on black paint. lol....
I did a small spot on the hood by hand and it was great seeing that mirror finish come back
