Well I have decided to go in a different direction with my truck and go with ptm-ing some things and getting rid of ALL chrome! I have a couple pics and maybe you guys can play with them a little more. I got rid of the grille guard and put a nfab light bar on it and I believe those are 6" lights. I wanna go with black nerf bars,black toobox, and black light bar with everything else being ptm and all plastics being really black.
Heres what I started with:

I shaved the door handles and removed trim(well I tried, I suck at ps) My color match failed too!

Jake has a few pics of the ptm bumpers which I hope he'll post because it looks sick IMO. I just wanna know what you guys think and maybe you can play with the ps a little more.

 

heres the rear all done. im gonna work on the front from what you have done. looks good though also)

 

that would look SICK, even better with some PTM fender flares

but would look better with a 99+ front end, HA!

 

thanks man! I love that blue rear end
I am definitely considering doing this.. I love the look. I was thinking that because I am buying a new bumper anyways I might as well get a 99 4x4 front bumper ptm'ed. Then put a light bar on that hoe, and then I have headlights,fogs,3 9" spot lights, and 2 in the grille

OVERKILL

 

do it , it would look awesome on your truck with your black wheels

 

Me too man! I cant find any reasons not to do this!

 

I agree the 99+ would look even more bad *** than just the ptm with black

 

Would you say get the 4x4?

 

Yea it's just a valence not a diff bumper like ours and you can get tow hooks also

 

I was just looking that up. Thats sweet. Too bad just the metal piece is like $115 bucks not including valance and top pad.

 

junkyard

 

How much is junkyard special gunna set me back? I can get all this stuff painted for free,but question is.. Can I do this for under $500. Thats getting new front and rear bumpers(top bad,4x4 valance, fog lights,GM tow hooks) and a nfab light bar. I am going to try to sell my front bumper and grille guard. Hopefully they will sell, because they are both in great condition.

 

also need new grille surround and the nfab bar is gonna run about 300 bucks

 

What do I need a new grille surround for???
