Well, started my friday after work with a lot of stuff on my mind for the truck. I knew what I wanted as I started a thread asking opinions and what i should or shouldnt do. but here is what i did, i bought a volant tube from another member, and ditched my k&n. I modded my stock air box, pics below and put the stock ac delco filter in for now with the volant tube, and cleaned out the throttle body since i had it all apart. Then i decided to do some work. lots of prep and sanding got me where i am at, and im extremely satisfied. i took off my billet grille and sanded it down, grabbed some black paint i had laying around, sprayed it, cleared it, and just installed it. Then here was the fun part, i started sanding the chrome front bumper since yesterday, and painted it to match as well. and i should of done it years ago. only other thing i want is an hd hood. enough jibber jabber.

modded air box




underhood



front as it will be til i get hd hood










went through lots of different front combos, but here was the before

 

Def like the billet painted. Bumper looks **** too. To be honest I like it with the chrome, with out it.. Truck looks sharp brotha..

 

i guess if i had chrome rims i would of kept the chrome bumper, but i really have been wanting to do the front for some time,thanks for the comment. maybe ill start the rear of the truck next weekend before i get married at the end of the month

 

i think it'll really be set off with that HD hood

 

Sharp truck!

Love those wheels and like that you made the center caps look a lot better!

 

MUCH better, and it looked good before lol. Only thing I would do, is ditch the blue bumper lights (bulbs). They always remind me of something that belongs on a mustang or a honda lol.

 

on the bumper it looks great! I've been wanting to do a black billet grill for sometime now.

Did you rattle can the bumper or is it actually sprayed? Either way its look good

 

i did lots of prep and rattlecanned everything, i have been thinking of getting some reg. white bulbs and replacing the blue ones as stated. thanks for the comments, hopefully hd hood comes soon. once paint cures i will wetsand, buff, and polish.

 

Looks nice!

 

Looks good man. Got another idea for you, maybe do a black bowtie on the grill now might look good with the billet being black now.
