Poor Hoe, waiting for sspme attention. View attachment 190591
Just dropped off 3 gallons of atf.
Atf did this to the plastidip.View attachment 190589
Weird. I think once the cold weather breaks I'm gonna try something different, other then dip. Probably more permanent, but out of a can.
Is it obvious I need brakes? Forgot to get a shot of the rotor.View attachment 190590

Youre gunna spray it this time right? Didn't you used to do that for a living? Painting bumpers?

Nope and yup. I'm just gonna redip it. I used to paint/repair bumper covers, but it sucked A$$!! Dipping is so much easier. Although @Fosscore painted bumper is :boobs:. Looks awesome!

Thanks man. Both front and back bumpers are still looking amazing. A few small rock chips on the front clip and a little mark from removing the headlights on the grille....grrr... but that whole grille/cap/bumper/valance color match project is still holding strong. Transformed the truck 180 degrees.

My wife just got out the hospital yesterday afternoon. But not because of the flu, she had a bad bleeding stomach ulcer. Thankfully the doctors were able to cauterize it and stop the bleeding, and released her the following day. Oh, and I am probably hurting more than she is right now. Try sleeping one those uncomfortable ass couches in a hospital room that folds down into a makeshift bed. My back is absolutely killing me now.
Holy crap. Hope you both feel better soon. I've slept on one of those hospital couch things and I can testify they suck badly.

Swsppedout my amber led drls. Most of the diodes weren't working. I put white leds to replace those, and white leds for the front blinkers. Got the hyper flash again.

I also replaced my messed up backup cam. Water got into it.

I also replaced my door and overhead white leds with blue leds, just because. No night shots tho, it's snowing.
I was also gonna put these in my front map lights. They're super bright. I even modified them to fit.

Once plugged in, they weren't that bright anymore. So I left the other leds in.

That's the same brand of backup cam that I just put in my Silvy. It has a great picture for such a cheap cam.
