Get a new chrome bumper and ptm the lower valance silver...

Get a new primered bumper and ptm it silver.....

Get a new primered bumper and ptm it silver and ptm lower valance silver...

Also a teaser pic of the grille that i am soon (i hope) going to start working on.... quick ps...



I also noticed a crack in my one headlight and corner as it is all full of condensation. Some opinions on new headlights?

PS's and any opinions would help. thanks.

I think keeping the chrome bumper would look nice..break up all that silver, but I would PTM the valance silver

As for the headlights...I think a lightning set would look good

I would first straighten the frame. Your tow hook is tilted. Try painting a primered bumper and the grill the same colour as the truck.

You could also leave it the way it is and put a bumper sticker on it. "You should see what is left of the Semi I hit"
