I have seen a simular switch to that with the arrows for a power sliding rear window?

Nice start!

Why did you change from the chrome smooth bumper to the chrome impact strip bumper?

1st i sprayed the whole rim and let all the chemicals do there work (repeat until you see the rim as clean as possible)
2ed i got the shop towels and cleaned the rim from all the gunk the aircraft left over
3ed i got used very little mothers polish and with the microfiber cloths i gave them a good whip down
and i love the way they came out !!

Some trucks came without moldings.... I vate on the smooth front bumper and no modlings! makes the truck look alot cleaner! But on the other hand, Welcome to the site buddy! Nice project, really love the RCSB!

wow that's weird, I used more crap and mine don't seem to look as good as yours. I used the same polish and rags.

I used some stripper, but I also sanded mine, they weren't smooth they had factory machine lines in them like the wheels.
