Default excited b/c im a little closer to what i want my truck to look like

im not sure if you guys have seen the pic before, but i am finally getting around to getting the truck how i want it to look. just thought i'd share......

someone had photoshopped this pic for me from this:


to this:


so i ended up trying to find all the parts required. i ended up getting a new hood & grille surround. had someone lay down the pinstriping, and finally got around to putting the hood on.







now i just have to find the time to install the grille surround, raise the bumper to get rid of the gap, and finish my expy console "mod", and ill be happy. but who knows how long that will take me, lol.

oh and i know the pin striping doesnt line up. but it wont be like that once i get the black surround installed. those all line up

Beautiful truck, I have a question, the section of hood that covers the windshield wipers, is that a part of the hood or an add-on? I see it's on Lightning as well as the SCab. I have a 2003 Scab.

out with the old





in with the new



what sucks is the pin striping was done off the truck. and the guy didnt factor in the "flex" from the grille. so the passenger side doesnt line up. ill have to get that redone
