Why isn't spring here yet??? Agh she needs a good detail. But I am thinking about color matching the roof rack now. Instead of having it black.

Just my 2 cents but the chrome on the rack goes well with the step and window trim. It balances out.

Btw truck is looking amazing.

There is no chrome on the rack right now. It's blacked out :)

Yeah I mean now it isn't as noticable. But I would rather color match. Still gotta figure out what I will do with the tailgate piece. If I get a new one and just color match like premiums. But chrome on the rack I don't think I want to do. To big of a piece to make it chrome. Also the window chrome will be going away soon to black to match. But keeping the door handles chrome and lower step piece to match the rear tips.

So cut two holes for tire hoist. Moved te tube over works great. But the issue is I can't get the freaking tire hoist down. The wire and spring come down but the metal holder that holds the tire want come. Like it is stuck on secondary latch. Might have to replace the hoist now.

I will be cleaning it up as well and painting it black so it won't start to rust.
