So far I have installed a leveling kit, 285-70-17 nitto terra grapplers, put new shocks and struts, painted valence, handles, grilles, bumpers, plasti dipped my wheels, painted my exhaust, I can't think of anything else at the moment. Lol

I still wanna tint my windows, paint my tails lights head lights and fogs, get rid of the running boards and install steps, and add a body lift and a few other small things

I used spray on bedliner for my rocker panels and the bumpers. I've heard of people using plasti dip but I wanted it to be permanent. I did use the plasti dip on my wheels though.. Worked great!

I think the bedliner was the spray on rustoleum brand I think is how it's spelled. But I sanded it down really good and taped everything off. I think I used 3 coats. So far it's holding up GREAT!

Installed my 3" HBS leveling kit. It's taller than the back now but next week my 2" AAL will be installed.. Couldn't get an alignment because Goodyear was backed up this afternoon but I have an appointment first this tomorrow!
