Thanks for all the comments. I spent the day fixing a bad dump. The fittings screwed in to far, and it was leaking really slow, and the dump stem was bad. Only good part is both problems were on the same dump and I didn't have to take too much apart to replace it. Since I had to go get a new pump, I did some junk yard diving. Found the dash pad piece I have been looking for (mine was cracked), found the rear interior panel I needed. It was bent, but a little time with the hammer and its straight now. Also got a tie rod adjuster ( I bent one using the jack under the tie rod, big no no). Then I headed to the the body parts store and picked up aftermarket bumper ends and valance. Bolted those up to the new chrome bumper and factory bumper brackets. I am going to run the plastic pieces raw (dark greyish) for now. If they bug me too much I will have them painted. I figure I am going to drive this truck a lot, so leaving them unpainted with save me the frustation of rocks chips.
