Some have scuffed the rockers and bumpers and done them in Line-X with UV additive .... looks great on the right truck and very tough.

In my case, no nicks or scratching yet on my 07 but I have those Husky stone guard "flaps" and the nerff style step bars (whatever you call them, I call them "handy" ) that protect and the lowered truck leaves less angle of attack for kicked up stuff.

The rest of this post from last Summer .... This is all that was left of a "Hot All The Way" .... three more bites and I started on number 2 .... or was it number 3?
I forget .... no one can eat just one .... they all are SO GOOD!
Yeah, there are those who would maybe say "ewwww ... gross" .... but those are the unfortunate, and sadly un-elightened ones who've never enjoyed such fine dining.
Yeah, that's a red dyed weiner in that bun .... and some chili and mustard relish .... in a steamed bun .... from The Texas Inn at Main and 5th Str, Lynchburg, Va.



Oh gosh, I want one now.

I thought about having mine done in black. Truck is already Dark Shadow Grey. I would have to pick up that fender trim you FX4 owners have though, if I did.

The black would look great.

If I had a solid dark shadow grey truck I would look at black or maybe polished stainless and chrome bumpers ....
....but from what I see, your's would look great with black Line-X with UV additive for rocker panels and bumpers?

There are some here who have changed out the stock lips or trim for aftermarket or paint to match ....
.... maybe if you run an ad in "wanted" forum for them?

There's also aftermarket ones that look great .... there's a couple on here who have them.

I wished I knew the tire/wheel combination of these trucks. Wheel diameter and width would be helpful.
