Ahh yes, I ask myself the same thing, what I was planning on doing for the time being before I weld it up, is remove it and replace with painted smooth plug I'm going to machine.

The dynamat brand has two rollers, one a wood one (cheaper version) and a "pro" roller, which is like a hard rubber roller with a wood handle. They are just basic press rollers to compress the dynamat once it is down. It is easy to apply, just clean the metal well with alcohol and a rag, peel the backing paper, and stick. You will need to learn how to apply it into the recessed portions of panel so you are not leaving air pockets where the area has reinforcing channels. Also this crap does not stretch, so you will need to make relief cuts in some folding over portions so that lay flat.

There is two different sets of tail lights in the pictures, the LED ones are the current ones and are going to get blacked out.

Thank you guys for the welcome :cheers:
Everyone's rides are lookin sweet, I better pick my game up and finish this thing.

I'm shoping around for a Siverado 2500HD hood to replace the scoop fiberglass hood. Anyone know a good place to find one? I'm wondering if the aftermarket hoods are decent quality...
