Default A few Updated Pic's of my Truck

You can see my new grill and shorty antenna-painted the base white also.
I will be painting the grill shell white in the future.

Dont bother painting the grille shell...had mine done by a good shop here and paint started flaking off in the cross hairs. Personally id buy the "work truck" version, (which i did), and run with that. Great truck and remember...white trucks are faster!

I love the way your grill looks.

No-wonder my neck feels like its snapping back when I hit the gas.
