that does look pretty good.. I guess I am just nervous though hah. I think I might go with glossy black to cope with the wheels better.. Maybe ill see if i can get one from the junk yard super cheap and practice on it to see if i like it or not. Did you just sand it down then primer + paint?

Ya I used adhesion promoter to make it smoother after I sanded it down too. You shouldnt be too nervous though. Its pretty tough to mess up and if you do just sand it down and try it again

Nice looking truck. I think nightshading your tails and painting your lower valence black would look way sick

I agree, i think it would too. Only thing, i went to buy some nightshade tint for tail lights and the guys there told me any color other than stock for tails is illegal in oregon and they are starting to crack down. Legoretta has yet to be pulled over for his VERY DARK tails (unless he isnt telling me something), so i might be okay with duin a light shade, just dont know if i want to chance it. But i have been wanting to do it for a while now.

Wow, yeah your valance painted looks sharp! i might have to do that. Here are a few of the new headlights. Truck is dirty, pictures are terrible because they are from my phone, but you get the idea...
