After the crap One Day Paint and Body returned to me I took the truck over to Hoffmantown paint and body and WOW. Sorry for the pic's in the rain.

Heres the earliest pic's I could find of my truck just so you get a better idea of where it started except I had the 17's not pictured, red tail lights and all the badges.

I have some Led, back up lights I'll be installing in the next few days also some recon LEDS and my x2000 tonneau cover. Oh and I do have another 3rd brake light I might try hooking up.

THANK YOU Hoffmantown Paint and Body. You guys do AMAZING work. My truck didn't look this good in the beginning when it was brand new.

Sweet job man, do you mind sharing what the repaint cost you? I am looking to get my truck done over in the next year or so and would like to know what I am looking at. I will be getting the same white paint as you, BRIGHT WHITE.

Johnny, the truck came out great. Looks like it just came off the showroom floor.

Beauty! I was quoted 8k but there is some work to be done way more than Johnny's straight body for sure. Maybe someday, when the Magnum Mods come to a slowdown. I like the shave relocation idea too. Danny

They had to strip down all of this first-

Looks awesome, love to shave my antennae off but still use it

Thank you. They do make internal antenna's that go on the inside glass, not sure how good reception is.

Truck look great. NOW.
That shaved antenna kinda makes it look like a person with no eyebrows.
Something is very different but it takes a minute to figure out what it is. lol

Thank you. That thing just drove me crazy every time I washed the truck lol.
I would have shaved the door handles also but sometimes in the winter when it gets REALLY cold I need the handles to pull it open. I don't think the popper would work as well.

Thank you, my fiance bought it for me a few years ago from sport truck direct - which had the worst customer service.

Looks really good look into dsk for a new badge

Thank you. You got a link for me?
