I really like what you did with your dash, gives me some ideas.
Heres mine, bone stock just after I got it last fall. I should get it back on the wheels this weekend, after flipping the rear and cutting the front coils, and will post more pics.

It's not factory, it's a really poor repaint. I was going to paint it GTX purple, with a black hood, but a couple people have said they like it orange, so I'm considering doing a good orange paint job with the black hood ala RoadRunner.

OK, heres my truck with 1 coil cut in the front and the rear axle "flipped".

It's almost perfectly level front to rear now, but I think I'm going to add a leaf in the rear, and cut about a 1/2 to 1/3 coil from the right front. Adding one in the rear will lift it a little and drop the front a little, and cutting the right front a little will hopefully make the front sit level. It's a little lower on the left.

I like the paint idea, I believe in driving them too. I rattle can'd the front fender on my '96 with Rustoleum and it turned out pretty good. It has that bad primer from Chrysler issue, which causes the paint to fall off. The fender needs replaced so I wasn't worried about what it looked like. Heck I have all next winter to paint it.
