[DIESELWRKS]

If you would like I can take a picture of my rear end. :-laf my bumper I mean its the factory bumper without the plastic step pad that I rhinoed it. plus how it flows with the sprayed rocker panels if you havent seen one to get a idea on how it looks.

My vote would be fender flares body color, grill body color, two tone the front bumper with paint, some variation of black on the bottom, like an air dam, then raise the black on the sides of the bumper to match the black body line of the undercoating you are going to apply.



Awesome Job!! It has been totally cool to follow along your project. Thanks for the post!

Thanks man. Its been a long road, but the finishline is near!!!:-laf

some more

here are some others trucks not clean but you get the idea and I took a couple of the inner step pad on the doors it would have been nicer to do the whole inner step and not notch around the rear door latch.

one last one. and the guy that sprayed my rockers was to spray around the bottom under the rear tail lights and never did so I painted the area black so you probley want to get that spot.

Those pics are better. :-laf Thanks man. I am gonna get the jambs & inner doors coated as well. Your truck is sweet!

I coated my inner wheel wells with Duplicolor bed liner. I made a brush hooked to a pole & gobbed it on so that it ran down between the wheel tub & bedside. I also did inside of my doors same way. I took a few pics.

I think it looks great. JMO, I would go black bedliner on the bottom, black bumpers and grille and black AR Mojave Teflons with black center caps and chrome lug nuts. I can see it in my head and it looks GREAT!!

just a thought you may want to line-x your traction bars would look good with everything else. and you know once your done. you are going to have to get black wheels the truck wont look right. (skinny wallet). just a thought until you get the ones you want you could always powder coat your wheels you have.
