much much better man. that black bumper really sets off the truck


are they the same color though? Almost looks like your truck has the dreaded "Texas Fade" and the new bumper hasn't faded yet.

I grew up a bit South of you in Temple/Belton. I remember what happened when I peeled the 4x4 sticker off an old 1994 F-150 I had in about 2000-2001.

The paint under the sticker was perfect, and you could clearly read "4x4"...the surrounding paint was a different color



really hope that isn't the case for you

Nothing a good detail can't take care of. The bumper came off a 2005 also.

Hey now just because I went ahead and shaved my tailgate before you could doesn't mean I stole the idea from you at all!
