I had a few hours to work on the bumper. It was snowing earlier, that doesn't happen much down here.



I removed the stinger, I didn't like the angle. I'll put it back on and get it braced up on Monday. Hopefully get it finished

I had fire training this mornin and this afternoon I replaced both bearing hubs on the front of the diesel and then had just enough time to get the diamond plate inserts in

Is it the Angle of the camera or just me that makes it seem not exactly center?

Corbo you should start making stuff and shipping it to me. Or other members maybe

Thanks WM! The face lift on the old girl makes her feel like a new truck, with out the new truck payments.

The camera angle is slightly offcenter to the passenger side so it does give the illusion of being off center.

That is a possibility. When I invested in the newly formed fab stuff the idea is to have something to make money with once I retire. That date is still ten plus years off. However once I get caught up on my projects, I would entertain the idea of fabricating items for sale.

There is a big storm coming and I figured I better get some primer on it before it starts rusting

I like that liter color on the bumper. I know it is primer but I am wondering what it would look like with a gray hammerite paint job or something like that instead of black? Something to think about maybe? It's only paint.

I kinda like the lighter color also. The problem is, I want all the trim to match.ie fender flairs, roll bar and bumpers... They are already black. In a few years when this Camo paint fades and I redo it, maybe then I'll go lighter on the trim. I think the tan might be a good choice or maybe a grey. I haven't seen Camo paints in grey. I've only seen about six colors in the ultra flat paint
