As for the grill and bumper, I boughtbrand newpaintable ones from CERTIFIT(Grill $20 Bumper $140)and painted them with Krylon Fuzion Satin Black(you can buy at Wal Mart) which is flat black with about 10% clearcoat. They say there is no need to sand for that type of paint to adhere but I went ahead and did a light sand with 1500 grit, and then put about 5 coats on. The lights I got from 4 WHEEL PARTS(about $30 each) and they come in black.

That thing is a true offroad user friendly beast. That'd be really fun for winter storms and offroading, has all the gadgets you need and wouldn't be fragile, goodwork bro!

loooks good, are you gonna paint the rear bumper or get the paintable one like you did in the front or go with a roll pan?

now you just need winch and you will be set

As for the back bumper I am just going to get a paintable one and maybe Rhino Line it. I have had buddies try to paint theirs and they end up peeling unless you sandblast all the chrome off which is alot of work and money since I would have to have a shop do it. I might acually get the whole bottom of the truck Rhino Lined when I take it in to get totally repainted next month.

I will try to get some night pics if the glare isnt to bad. Let me tell ya, when me and my buddies take our trucks out at night I always have to lead cause its insane, all the bulbs are 100w.[8D]

Rhino Lining near the bottom of the truck is a great idea. I had the entire bottom perimeter of my truck sprayed with chipguard iabout 6 inches up. I had them do the tailgate with about 2 inches up. Then I had them paint over all of the chip guard with the color of the truck so you can't tell its there unless you feel it. It's awesome! All the doors can't rust or peel anymore, and it's just indestructable from any kind of abuse it may go through!
