the best thing I ever did to my truck was get rid of the two tone and go all black.

I got T-boned on my passengers side so it needed to be fixed anyways. I always wanted it all black so that was the perfect opportunity to do it. So, I took it to a "friend" who has a body shop in Waco and they did it for me. I claimed it on insurance so the check covered most of it. I think I was only out about $100 which isn't bad at all. They did a pretty half assed job on it though which didn't make me too happy. Patman and I pulled off my front license plate one day to mount it in a different location and found out that they didn't even take it off to spray. So there was literally tan lines from where they just sprayed right over it. So I had them repaint that finally after raising a big stink. He also did my handles and mirrors too and they didn't turn out much better. He redid them again and they're still not right and starting to chip a little bit. Needless to say i'm not taking any paint work to him anymore. When I get my saleen kit on I'm just going to have them re-do everything and my interior again too since he screwed that up too. You'd think that someone who has been around a paint shop their whole life could do a decent job but I guess not.

Yes

This is a great deal. I put one on 2 weeks ago direct bolt on. And if you truck is black the paint looked perfect. Only bad thing is that the entire grill in plastic and a little flimsy but the price was right.
