Looks sick i didnt kno they made a 3inch

foot to the floor

I didn't know either. Just saw it on CL one day for $80. It had some rock chips that had pitted through the 2 or 3 layers of primer and paint. There were also some small cracks on the front, but I just got some fiberglass cloth and resin and patched it, sanded it, and had it painted. I love it, probably spent $100 total between buying it and repair supplies, not counting cost to paint it.

Here's how it was. Easy fix. It was actually fun to do. I would've rather had a steel one, but this isn't too bad for the price.

Thanks man, I used to be of the opinion that trucks should have chrome bumpers. Kind of old school feel.

Now I'm seriously considering selling it and getting a paintable smoothie colormatched. Ultimately I want something with a frenched license plate and fog lights.

But if I get a colormatched front, then I have to get a paintable colormatched rear bumper too.

sorry for the temporary jack.

Off topic, but how is the output on those headlights? I was thinking of getting the same ones.

It's pretty bad. I want to get some retrofitted. Either OEM projectors from another car, or some aftermarkets, but those get slightly expensive.

I still have yet to get some HID's in them, so I don't know how it would be that way, but I think I'd rather get better projectors first. I didn't want to put HID's in standard housings for the glare issue, I wanted the clean cutoff and better focusing of projector housings.
