I really like doing little cosmetic mods that make my truck my own and different from others out there. IMO anybody can buy a piece and stick it on.
Painting is easy as long as you prep well and either remove the part or tape it well.
Some painting I've done:
Winch Carrier color matched:
101_0092-1.jpg
and I painted the grey plastic components of my Jeep black with Plasti-Dip:

As far as other "home-made" mods:
The "HEMI" license plate/fairlead cover (see truck pic above)
Light bar for Jeep:
Sill cover plates:

Billet over radiator:

and I've done a few more, but don't wanna take over the thread. My point is all of these little "home-made" projects help to make my truck "my own"...

Did you seriously just ask where to buy nightshade?? I know for a fact you were a part of the night shade thread a couple weeks back! I got mine from amazon. I used paint tape to make the lines myself based on what I saw in my head.
