All I got this time was a Putco chrome fuel door cover, a shorter antenna and some chrome windshield wiper things...I'm following Hammer down the chrome road.

I've NEVER been a fan of the plastisized chrome accessories, but a chick I was seeing about three years ago gave me the Putco fuel door as a gift, so how do you not put it on? I figured to leave it on for a bit and then say it fell off and get a true stainless replacement door.
We split up over two years ago and the cover is still on the truck. I painted the fake "rivets" red about a while ago, but the thing grew on me and I see no reason to take it off unless it falls off or starts to lose it's finish...

Now it's time for you to get some diamond plate!!! LOL...

i was honestly thinking about diamond plate bed caps. and maybe a diamond plate tool box. i dont care much for the tool boxes but i would have a good use for one. and the door cover is temporary until i can save the $120 for the real SS fuel door with black rivets...my job sucks....

Hunter, i personally think your truck rocks the 6 ft' antenna. i like the big trucks with long antennas...idk. i just looks right. love your truck btw.

i didnt look too closely, but i think they are etched in. ill take another look and if they are...ill remove it with good old WD40 and then the logo will be no more.
