WOW!!! Looks great Glad you didn't go fully blackout. Those PTM handles will look great. Are you gonna paint the whole mirror?

Have you found the glossy pillars for a good price? I have been looking for a while.

Dont sweat the doubleface on the kit, just clean it up good and rub it down with some alcohol. Then use the adhesion promoter you got with the kit... it does an awesome job because the brackets actually pinch the kit to the bottom of the cab. The bed sides also have brackets that do a good job. Its just that darn rear valance...

truck is very stealthy-like!

I've got some Street Scene mirrors I'm going to use. The only place I know of to get 04 glossy pillars is the dealer.

Yeah, I've had the whole kit out of the box, looked everything over, and read and re-read the instructions numerous times. Can't wait to do the install!

once painted it took me 2-3 hours to install it all by myself. Not hard at all but a second pair of hands would be great.

Also on the pillars, they are just aluminum and easily masked. why dont you guys have them PTM?

It's a Ford. It doesn't take much to make them look good. - Og

The pillars are a really light gauge aluminum. They are nearly impossible to take off without creasing or bending them.

There's actually only a couple of small dings. I suppose they could be painted after a little 'work' is done.

The roof has some hail dents too, but only lifted trucks see it, and who cares about lifted trucks.
