Ok,so here's the tail lights. I think they look sweet as hell.

And I'm undecided on this 4x4 grille. Yes,that's chrome spray paint,lol. I'm taking it off shortly and putting my stock one back on. I think I'm going to repaint the 4x4 grille dark grey,or primer so it blends in or something. I think it looks too bright.

Let me know your thoughts on the grille. I kinda like it,but kinda don't. Leaning more towards the don't. If anyone wants a 4x4 grille,I'm willing to sell it for like $40.

Let me be the first to say that you did a GREAT JOB! They do look absolutely amazing! I am next in line to do this little mod!

Good job again, and I think this topic was well worth it!

Oh and the grill I think doesn't look bad, but could be better!

Nice truck though, don't get me wrong!

Thanks guys. I absolutely love the tails like that on the truck now. Looks totally different. As for a roll pan,yep,that's in the plans for this spring. Nice roll pan with the licence plate mounted on the left side,and I can do the installation and give my new MIG welder a try. There will however,be no welding of the tailgate. It has to stay functional just because to open up the tonneau cover every time is a pain in the ass.

Oh,I also took the 4x4 grille off before I went to work today,and put my stock one back on with the clear corners and looks waaaay better. I still want one of the chrome shell/billet insert T-rex grilles though. But yeah. She needs some TLC. I'm $8000 into her so far,and looking to spend around at minimum,another $5k to 8k to get it finished.

Hopefully during the May 2-4 weekend I can get the body straightened out and spray it satin black,or redo the entire truck in Zinc spray primer. I've got a lot of work ahead of me before I head for Florida in July.

oh yeah and you wonder why the truck is rusty. Look at that shit I have to drive it through. I hate winter.
