Your peterbilt is very gorgeous! Are you using it on carrying heavy equipments? I wish I could have that also. :head3:

I mainly pull a single tanker with 4 axles at a gross wt of 106,000 pds, sometimes I do get pulled off to haul equipment when the big truck is needed, not very often though.

DEFINITELY get a mesh insert for that and you can pull off that red grille. Looks pretty :boobs: to me!

I think the grille may be the issue. I don't like the vertical bars on Pete's because it makes them look like wannabe KW's.

The cone looks good, but something up there just doesn't look right. I don't care for painted tanks unless they're on a show truck. They seem to get chipped up way too easily. And since this is a work truck I wouldn't want to see chips in my tanks from the steer tires throwing $hit back on them. Just my .02

Im planning on puting clear bra on the nose cone as well as tanks to help with the rock chip issue

Deff prefer the polished grill shell, but i'm very biased to polished aluminum and stainless compared to painted. This is one of our old trucks just to give you an idea...

I like it, are you keeping the tank straps polished? One of my favorite rigs is the red one in the video for chicken lights and chrome
