for the bumper, it almost like like you would have to put the stripe on at an angle to make it look like its straight with the hood

Agreed. The body lines are going to be very hard to match up from the side of the truck like that. Even if it's 100% straight, it's still going to look off.

Im not done, I plan on doing the grill roof, bed cover and tailgate. The bumper is ******* me off it is straight to the middle of the truck but the bumper bends a different direction then the hood, giving the appearance that its crooked, Im going to rmove the bumper part and use a laser straight line to aline the whole truck. I wanted to do something that hasnt been done. So i thought long and hard about it and came up with this. Im going to try and get it done this weekend , but my wife could go into labor any minute now so we'll see :baby:
