new update

So today, I had some time to kill so I decided to spray on bedline my side steps. I only spent 38 $. I feel it was worth it. First I sanded down with 120 grit, then 220, and lastly 320. I used wax and grease remover, the acetone and let them dry. I used Rustoleum spray bedliner from the can. It was very easy but be careful because this stuff comes out thick from the can.

Thanks bro, I found mine on ebay. For a 2000 model, I'd check with body shops, they have connections with parts dealers from salvage yards. I had a 2000 model in college and loved it. Ran like a champ. I put 243000 miles on it. It was a tank.

Tuner is done

Installed Diablo T1000 today, big difference. More throttle response, shifts great, turned off mds and it seems to get better gas mileage on 87 tune. Now I'm going to cycle 2 tanks of 93 octane and switching to 93 tune. I'm stoked.

Next up, headers, bilsteins, new grill, gears and possibly stereo speaker update. Then I'm done, no more money haha

Haha, breaking the speed barrier. I got mine from Moes and got it in one day. I'm happy with the results.

I say get rid of it if you can. Only problem I had when I removed pin striping from a previous vehicle, the paint under the strip was different due to the rest of the truck fading. So technically I still had a pin stripe haha.

Btw, your truck looks great.
