Thanks man. Here's a pic if my new emblem for the front. I got rid of the one I had custom painted and made this one. I wanted some chrome back and changed the blue to metallic black to match the truck.

I didn't know you had a build thread, Murph!
Lookin' nice, Bro. We think alike in many ways- you just stopped and took pics...!
What about your sway? I ordered one from Tony, and hopefully will have it on in the next couple of weeks (or whenever I finish the Mrs's wall/ rock garden...which ever comes first.)
You're a talented fella- every little touch is tasteful, yet subtle.

Thanks bro! I appreciate the kind words. We are moving out east in 3 weeks and have been super busy. Sway will prob happen later this summer. I will definitely keep this thread updated. Started working on a new dash piece yesterday, pics will be up soon.

Good luck out east- have safe travels to get there, and a good life to follow (I am sure).

New tonneau. Undercover LUX tonneau. Ptm and only weighs 50lbs. Battery powered LED light inside so no splicing wires. Unlike fiberglass covers that are approx 200lbs with hardware this thing is feather light and quickly removable. The shocks pop off and clip to the cover and there are quick release hinges so if you ever need to remove it it can be done in minutes and hung up on the supplied hook in your garage until you pop that bad boy back on. Color match is perfect. (UH- tux black) this coming from a painter) I was a little unsure about the molded wing/lip on the back but seeing it in person I love the sporty look.

I'll get pics of the inside and the light soon. FYI this tonneau is molded ABS, inside and out which is why it's so light.

Not a huge fan of the lip, hence why I chose a Leer 550. But it looks pretty wicked on your truck. I love how a PTM tonneau sets off the looks on these trucks! Amazing truck all around
