Took a few new pics. Since I last put up pics, I repainted the inside of the grill which was faded, added a soft tonneau, Gibson split rear exhaust, and converted over to chrome bumpers and mirror covers. What do you think?

Before:




Now:

 

Looks good man

 

eh i liked the PTM better

but its still a good lookin truck

 

i like the new bumper. not a fan of chrome mirrors though, or the covered wagon that is now your bed.

 

^^ lol

i like tyhe old frount bumper the rear and mirrors look ok though

 

What did you do with your old bumpers?

 

Very clean ride

 

Very nice truck got a gibson myself and love it

 

They're for sale.


The reason I replaced them at all is that the front has some surface rust spots and I would've rather switched over to the chrome than repainted them. They're not rusted through or anything, in fact, the back sides of both bumpers are perfectly clean. The reason I switched to chrome mirror covers is that I hit a mirror off a mailbox one day after getting forced over to far by another car, and couldn't find another silver cover mirror, so I got a chrome one, and got a chrome cover for the other side too.

As far as my bed being a covered wagon, *shrug* I guess that's a soft tonneau then, I've always liked them better than the hard ones, and the folding ones are more than I want to spend to cover my bed. I'd rather put the money into other things.

 

It's your truck. If you like it, that's all that matters.

Looks good

How do you like your exhaust? What's the sound compared to stock?

 

Any pics?

 

I like it a lot. It's not super loud, but it is definately a noticable difference from the stock exhaust. At highway speeds, you can just tell that something is there, and you don't have to talk over it, which I like. I'm not into rediculously loud exhausts like some are.

PM me your e-mail and I'll send you some.

 

i understand about the mirrors then, would me much easier to replace then find another silver one.

not all soft tonneaus are arched like that
theres mine

$150 off e-bay

 

I personally like the ptm mirrors and bumpers better, but I understand why you changed them out. I have almost the same truck as you and my front bumper is all nicked up from rocks and suck. I'm constantly touching it up. Exhaust looks sweet!
