First things first. Thanks Jake for the hookup on the toolbox.

Next on the agenda. I have it all stripped down and ready for primer and paint. I'm still not sure what color to paint it. Do you guys think I should go Gloss Black or Satin Black? I will be putting a design on it too but that will be in the bed. So toss out some ideas guys and gals. Satin, Gloss, Bedliner??

That's almost exactly what I'm gonna do. But with a mean twist. Not sure how mean the ram is gonna look.

Thanks! It turned out pretty good. Gonna see how well it holds up to the weather. May need a couple more coats and maybe some clear, but still looks good.
