Re: project " corn bread "

That's really funny to me that he gave you a nickname. I see plenty evidence of bread, but not much evidence of corn in that project. Neat truck, and looks like it had some nice dress-up options from the factory. I looked into a set of those wheels, but they're out of range for me at this point. Just an idea, but I think they would look cool the original color of rally wheels. Maybe just a shade or two darker than the silver that's on the truck. You've got a really sharp truck.
