I guess I'm just over here talking to myself, don't mind me lol! I went ahead and plastidipped the chrome trim around the windshield along with the chrome window visors. I never put the cab lights on because I wasn't happy with the look so i decided to paint them and I think they turned out pretty decent. I might buy the clear version and redo them.

I also painted the corner and bumper lights in the same fashion to see if I would like it and I do so I will order some new lights and get them painted up. While I was there I went ahead and wet sanded and re-cleared the headlights to see if I can get another couple more years out of them before I have to replace the lenses. I'm really happy with how everything has turned out. Traction bars are next on the list.

I think I want to put another layer of 5% tint over everything and like 40%-35% on the windshield with a 5% brow. I also want a bedcover that's flush with the bed rails and a full length toolbox that sits flat in the bed with the drawers that run the 6.5'

I mean, you could just paint the windows if you don't want to see out of it.

Look at Bak products. They're the most flush bed covers I've seen. I'm looking at the MX4 or the Revolver X2 for my '16. As far as drawers, look at the decked system.

That's always an option lol! I just don't want people to see in. I don't think I can find a company that makes a bedcover for this old of a truck. I really like the looks of the ptm laser lite but they sit on top of the bed rails I think I just might have to build one. I've seen that decked system before but never paid any attention to the name after I saw that they cost $1100 lol I think that's another thing I'm going to have to build.

Go look at my truck. 30 on the shield with 5 on the fronts, and 5 over 20 on the back.

Lol. Really not sure on the cover. The decked system I would just use for ideas of how to build it, and how to attach it. I'm not in for buying a $1100 toolbox. Lol

Oh I see you have an f150 again but still a 2wd, love the color though. Yup that tint looks good I think 5 on top of what I have and 30 on the windshield will work. I rarely even drive it in the day so I'm not too worried about night time driving. Now I have to go into New Mexico because I don't think anyone here in Colorado will do it. What I have now is illegal so might as well go all in

It's definitely a nice looking system just ridiculous priced.
