my 98 stepside project

I believe so, if you mean by being a painted bumper. I know around here about every GMT400 has a chrome bumper except the basic work trucks. Those usually have a silverish gray painted bumper. And usually bent up...lol Idunno why, but its freaken hard to find a painted bumper. Even in a junk yard.

New grill, and the lights ive still sitting in boxes..

Nice, I am looking forward to seeing pics of the grille on the truck, and I see what you are going to paint the dash, how are you painting it?

Gotta finish plastic welding the defrost cover, gonna skim some bumper epoxy over it as the filler work material.. finish sanding it smooth and plastic primer. As for paint....lol, still unsure Torn between green and white, or green and black. Would it look odd if the truck was green and white, and interior green and black?

 

[98nightmare]

Any opinions?

I think green and white would be sweet to match the exterior do you have a link to those lights?

 

[98nightmare]

Sure dont, got them off Ebay a few years ago

i had those lights before. there fitment sucked..... so be prepared to do some custom work to make them fit evenly and also space them back another 1/4inch or more.
i went back with OEM clears. just be sure to do the typical ebay sealing job with clear silicone on the lenses! my corners filled up with water real easily

I'm glad I had the idea of using silicone drilled into my head. I haven't had any leaks yet (*fingers crossed)

Awesome! $200 is a score and a half!
