Haven't done much new in the past few months... Had the grill repainted and went back to the oem grill badge. Un-dipped the truck for the most part. I liked the black look but it didn't hold up as good as i thought it would. Only thing that has plasti-dip now is the antenna. While I was having the grill painted I took all the black plastic trim pieces off the front (lower grill, bumper step plate, fog surrounds NOT the lower air dam..yet) and kryloned them which made a world of a difference.

Here are some more pics:

Here are a couple pics to show progress.

This pic is as I bought her. I bought used, she was 1 year old with 10,000 miles on the ticker. The previous owner had the bed line-x'd, had the 16k lb Reese 5th wheel hitch installed, and, had aluminum diamond plated tool box, rail caps and tailgate cap installed (now removed).


As she sits today:
