Nice.

Question: On the wheels, did they sand blast or somehow scratch off the chrome?

Since yours is a real R/T, have you thought about adding R/T badges to the sides, where the HEMI badges were? I've been thinking of buying two of these and putting them on the fenders:

Thanks guys.

The wheels were sanded. I've got a friend that works at a body shop, and he prepped and painted them.

I like the clean look without the badges, although the thought had crossed my mind to put a small R/T on the tailgate. I'm just gonna keep it as is now, maybe I'll slightly tint the lights. I do need to add some Brown Dog Welding graphics to it, but I'm having a hard time deciding on what I want. I really like the look it has now.

You should find some way to replace the Dodge badges on the grille & tailgate with your Dog logo.

Yeah, that's been a thought. Great minds think alike

I think for sure I'm getting "Browndogwelding.com" in my old english-style font along the bottom of the tailgate, maybe in a grey. Then get my dog logo in the rear window.

That would look cool.

Another idea is to get the Rumble Bee style strips on the back, but put the dog in there instead of the bee. This is the only pic I could find, but it gives you the idea. I'd skip all the other Rumble Bee stuff though, like the ground effects and hood.

I'm not a huge fan of the stripe. I've seen your idea done a lot, there is a landscaping company that does that with all their work trucks.
