Well, The radio controls are on hold while I "think"...



I bought full chrome door handles (not covers) a while back, and decided that it was too much chrome. I sanded the factory black pebble bases, primed and painted them the color of my truck..then mounted the chrome handles on them.




Did the same thing in the tailgate (locking handle, chrome handle cover)


Factory nightrunner headlights...I am planning on painting the grill frame body color and keeping the chrome grill...new body color bumper cover planned as well....


I ditched the chrome mirror covers too...

 

Looks good! How did you take the handle bases off of the truck?

 

The handle bases are held on by two 10mm nuts and one rod clip...
The handles themselves are held onto the base by a pin.
Super easy!

 

Sweet! Thanks Hammond!!!

 

Looking good Dave!

 

That is a good looking truck.

 

Nice! I will be doing the painting part of the handles and the grille soon!!!!

Question : Where did you find a locking rear tail gate handle?
Or is it one like the pop n lock thinghy you add to it?

 

It says it fits 1997 - 2004, but it also fits up to 2011 (as you can clearly see!)

You can't beat the price!

 

Looks good...good job!

 

Those handles are sick! I would love body color handles, but I would hate to have them scratch from finger nails and stuff.
