Sorry, ZW. My phone wasn't showing the pictures for some reason the other day.

The doors look good! I think the white goes nice, but still getting used to the blue. Still great work!

Yeah i gotta admit at first the interior colors weren't looking too good, but now that you've got it mostly done it all flows together really well.

I have a 99 F150 as well, but I changed my seats out for the newer style. They are so much more comfortable and it gets the seat belt out of the way, I always hated how the old style seat belts dangled in the way.

New Style:

Not the interior of my truck, but these are the seats I use

I love my built-in seat belts. Really makes things cleaner inside the cab without the seat belts as you stated. Plus when you decide to do an Expy console, it makes pulling the seat out a cinch, and makes converting the 60 to a bucket even easier!

This thread is awesome! What are you using to paint?

When I get back from my deployment, I'm either going to sell the truck or get it professionally done interior, might have to hit up 402, haha.
