Thanks yall, I've thought of powder coating the bumpers but then again I kind of like knowing if I bump into something theres no paint thats going to be messed up on a chrome steel bumper.

And actually its a 5.5' bed.

Looks great. I have the same running boards and would love to take them off. They do help with detailing the roof though and reaching stuff inside on the opposite side of the seat even with me being 6'3". Plus I have people in my life that would not let me take them off and would kill me if I took them off just to put other ones on. Maybe later in life I can figure something out

I just love the irony of this... the more you NEED running boards the more you need to remove them for looks!

I currently don't have a set and even unlifted it looks clean but, I am getting old and they sure do help my little **** so I probably am going to hunt down a set I guess. Is $150 too much to pay for a set? There is one local set for a Crew asking that money.

Here is the Screw without as of now...

I guess its just camera angle IDNC because I'm pretty sure its 5.5 foot lol.

And cphilip yeah its great isn't it? The more useful they get the more you want them gone for looks lol. But hey I can get in still and the girlfriend got in just fine today so I'm quite happy with them being gone. I'm not too sure on running board prices though so can't really help you there. But I know I'll be putting mine up on craigslist most likely along with a few other things off the truck and I would sell them for $150.

Thanks for all the compliments yall!

Exact setup I was planning on running, but I've changed my mind. Looks great though.
