So what's the plan on the wheels? Paint or powdercoat?

 

i like the wheels how they are ... its a nice off set from being all black ...

 

Wow man where does it end!!!! hehehe.......awesome job......youve done really nice work...what a transfo!!!! Quick question for ya, I'm wanting to change my shift **** on my 98 xl, just want to know how you got yours off???? It does'n seem to want to budge, and before I break something I thought I would ask!!!! Thx

 

gonna do paint. not worth the powdercoat and paying to take the tires off again and not having spares etc..

thanks man. my shifter **** just came loose. it just pulls off, but if it wont come off id keep it there, the aftermarket ones are so frustrating, they come loose and vibrate real bad

and heres the plan for the wheels, if it warms up soon and stops raining



and heres an idea ive been working on for the front (still needs the lightbar though)

 

Heres a better one of what it should look like soon with out the light bar(going back on)

 

You should get one that says Jake or something.

My buddy just showed me a pic of his grille. He got a dark black mesh type material and stretched it across his honeycomb grille and pinned it that way I guess. It looks like a floating emblem.

Off subject, but.. oh well

 

I'd Like to see a pic of what ur talking about brad...

 

Jake that front end looks awsome

 

Looks good man!! Where did you order your new grille surround from and how does it fit along the fenders??

 

Is that a Patman grille??! Or is it a photoshop? Or an ebay grille? lol looks good whatever it is!

 

Photoshop you can see it if you look close.

 

I will have to see if I can get him to send it to me.. He just did it to his truck. Doesnt look bad actually. Just like a random emblem floating.

 

thanks man, i got it off ebay for 75 bucks shipped and it fits great actually. i can get pics if you want also

to answer your question id say yes haha. its my ebay grille that i photoshopped to a patman grille. looks sweet to me also. ( i was up way too late one night and then played around more before class in the comp lab)

 

Haha, yeah I stay up too late thinkin of truck mods too
like last night with my painted fx4 wheel thread.

 

Which you should do.

as soon as it warms up i plan on painting the wheels, bumper plastics, rear window trim(again needs touch up from toolbox swaps), door panels, rear emblem, shocks maybe, bed rails maybe. haha gonna make a day out of it
