Took steps off and changed grill alittle...(PICS)

Well I took my steps off today, girlfriend isnt happy about it, but I like the look better. I also did alittle something to the grill to change it up a bit. I also touched up my emblem, it was chipping so I sanded it down again and repainted it. For the emblem the outside is solid black but the inside is tinted but you cant really see it. Sorry the crappy pic I just quickly snapped them and didnt bother with the lighting. And the overcast sky doesnt help either. I will definitely get some better pics when the day is better and I wash the truck.

This spring I will be pretty much painting to match everything, the mirrors, handles, and the grill except for the inserts unless I buy a new grill. Also right now I am working on buying a hood, Once I find the time to put in my subs and amp those will be in and tint. A few other things but those are on the list right now. Thanks

I'm not sure what I want to do to the fogs, either tint them with night shades or paint the inside.

I can't stand nerf bars or running boards. Definetly a improvement. I guess I could understand a set of bars if you was running 44's and couldn't get in the truck(lol), but I just don't like them any other way.

Seems like a long list of stuff to do this spring to, goodluck and post pics as you add stuff. Espically the amp and subs.

went and looked at my friends lil brothers truck the other day. its a 03ish 2500hd w/ a bullet proof lift and 40" tires. and im standing next to it wondering how the hell do you get in. had no hidden steps or anything. but the truck looked sick but then again its 2wd and will never see a spec of dirt.
