The weather was nice today so I did a little paint, etc.

This was the Truck last time it was washed (So before Picture).

Notice the Chrome grille insert, and silver tow hooks and diamond plate on Top of the bumper and behind the Tow Hooks and the EOD licence plate.

The Tow Hook Painted OEM Blue and Clear Coat with Adhesion Promoter.

Ok so on Friday I changed out the cheesy aftermarket sport grille that came with my new grille bought last year. The sun bent one of the ABS slats and a rock chipped one of them, besides too much chrome! So I put back in the Honeycomb. Pic of that with dis-assembled Tow hooks and diamond.

Next is some Body work and other changes to Come (as per signature)! I also put my Truck Cap up for sale but that could be hard to sell as I don't wanna give it away, we'll see how that goes.

Don, Bought it at a local metals shop (AB Steel) half a 4 x 8 sheet bought two years ago when I was diamondplating everything in sight. You can probably buy a small piece for arond 20-30 bucks, it makes a nice filler for in behind the hooks as my black plastic piece is long gone.

Its Dark out right now but sure in the daylight if you like. Those are cheap $20 Spyder Driving lights, LED bulb I think. They held up pretty good for 3 1/2 years. I modified the stock blank holders and riveted them in place after eyeballing the aim....LOL
