Well I found a color and had it photoshopped onto my satin black and here it is. Just imagine it with clear. Supposed to be candy apple red pearl.

THANKS LOL Well I had to make some pieces at work for a friend and they dont really like me doing that so I figured if I have it at home I can make whatever whenever... I'm going to buy a tig sooner or later and make my own fuel cell and I can finish my fan shroud. Need something made????

Wow I just noticed how long its been since Ive done anything on my truck. I did remove the rear suspension to figure out bag placement and ordered two more bags so they are coming soon. Heres a few from a couple weeks ago. I have the notches made I just have to cut the frame and weld in.
