I really love the color matched rear.

The front... It just makes the flares look strange now. :-(

Looking good! Thanks I was thinking about getting a 1.25 BL too, anything I should know or tips? Like install, having to hide the gaps if any, change in stock ride?

Thanks again guys! Loved walking up to her to roll out to lunch.........what a fine ass. :D

Front is making me wonder, but I still like it over the chrome. :D

No gaps will be seen. Biggest thing, have the right tools (air tools!) and a LOT of drill bits. :D

Sounds like you need to buy a bigger garage brotha! (;

Time to move! I'm not doing anything to this house.....

Looks great JJ, a lot better than the chrome, i cant wait to see your new heads and fogs!

oh me either. in due time, still trying to decide what I want to do. LOL

Me either. I'm hoping that next weekend I can get my lights opened, mocked up and to the painter. But, customer orders come first!

Jj- she is a beautiful piece of work. Before this thread I didn't know there was a difference with the sport bumpers. As to the flares imho, go with the extenda flares. I think that would keep with the smooth clean lines youbalready have. Your truck makes me wish I had gone with half ton, but that won't happen until they offer a diesel. But I definitely want to do a dual rear exhaust 2500 diesel.

After a few days with it........

I love it. Flares looked out of place to me at first, but I think with the line there from the top pad, it still breaks it up enough. So, I'm happy. I don't want to drop $$ on another set of flares. :D

Had the truck out tonight, parked and was pulling the kiddos out and someone walked over. Looked at me and commented on the truck "nice truck there man. Like what you did up front here, don't see too many of these with a REAL painted bumper. Have you ever thought about doing something with the headlights though?"

I about fell down laughing. Gave him my card, explained that its definitely in the works! :D
