Yeah the DipYourCar guy recommends laying down some Gunmetal grey as a base coat, then putting the White on. I ordered 1 can of Gunmetal, White and Smoke from SummitRacing. I'll test it with that. I think if I lay the White over the Gunmetal, then hopefully dull the White with the Smoke, I might be able to closely match the Oxford White. If not, I'll try Dupli-Color. Anything beats the $150 per flare (painted) plus 1hr (per flare) install at $92/hr.

I had some leftover Black and White so I did the toolbox the previous owner had in the truck.

The Black PD was still drying when I took the pic so it looks blotchy.

Nice truck man. Could you take some measurements for me? The front and back, need from the ground to the highest part of the fender. Just collecting different lift brands and measurements. Thanks.

Are you running any spacers on the front to fit the 35s?

Not to be Debbie downer but I test drove another f150 before the one that i have now and that had a 6" lift and had 35" tires with 3.73 gears. I took it on the highway for the test drive and it fell flat on its face and kept dropping in to the passing gear going up hills. Needless to say you have a nice truck
