I figured that was what you are talking about. I am talking about fairly low profile oval tips that fit the back of the truck. Not 8" round fat *** honkers.

See told you it will look good!

It made it!!!

This is just sticking it up there to get a good idea. The bumper cover is in great shape over all, but it will need some love. Mostly on the end caps but I think light coat of bondo and some quick sanding and it will be good. On to the pictures.



Again I just set it up there. It will be up a little higher when I mount it and the end does match up properly.

Do I need to really worry about the back side of the fiber glass? If not my plan is to mount it do the body work it needs then paint it on the truck.

Also I got the exhaust tips in so hopefully the exhaust will be done this week! Probably wed or thurs since I get my tax money on wed.

Front bumper and rear pan looks good, oval tips not so much. I would dump it or put a nice tip behind the right rear tire. Just my OP

The only way I can see tips with a roll pan is a regency style pan with the cutouts for tips. Are you going to take off the flares/lower body stuff?

With Tax money getting tight I chose to try to rattle can the front bumper. It looked good but already has some stone chips in it. I painted it about 3 weeks ago. So in a month or two( when it warms up) I will get good a pain and do it right. The color is very very close. It is just a touch darker but if you wern't trying to compair you would never notice.


I bought the tips but with tax money getting tight and having loose ends that will need wrapped up on my other truck the exhaust will not get done for a few more weeks. I am really hoping to just have the money to get a muffler and the tips put on at the same time.
The tips I bought are the ovals.
