Default update of project lowered longbed

well now that I some what have the pics working , here you go. Smotthed and colormatched the grill, added an e-bay grill insert, and also made the addition of chrome handles. I was going to do the panted handles, but decided to be different.
i have also included a pic of a center consol that I bought off of a member and dyed the fabric graphite to match my interior. the center consol was originally pewter, which i put a piece of the original fabric in there to show how much of a color change there was. let me know what you guys think of the pics, i am open to critisim.

sign up for a photobucket account (or similar) and upload photos there. There will be 3 links below each picture, one is a direct text link, one of them has a IMG tag before & after the file name and I don't know what the heck the third one is for??.

example

those handles stick out like a sore thumb man, some painted ones would look 100 times better
