Too expensive for me for that...not running a show truck. However I put on a nice black shorty antennae.

Unfortunately I really suck at painting so I have to go to a body shop when I need paint work. I had both bumpers painted, antenna shaved, tailgate shaved, and some scatches taken care of. Ended up painting right front fender, rear quarter panel, sport mirrors painted, tailgated painted. Paid $850. Didn't like the painted rear bumper, installed a roll pan (hidden hitch) and wasn't happy with some of the finish that the shop did. Found a Fast and Furious shop that specilize in custom rides. They will finish the body work on the roll pan and repaint and clear coat practically the whole truck. I wish I had found these guys before going with the first shop. These guys are serious gear heads that love to paint. LOL, my truck looks lifted next the other rides in the lot.




Good luck...

Yup...thats the only way I'd do something like that...was if it was thrown in with a bunch of other work. I'll admit though...looks great!

Mikesa, truck does look great. The guy I got a quote from had some real nice dropped trucks in his lot and he also does hot rods and such. He was working on a 1967 camero when I walked up, almost felt unworthy of being in the shop lol
