    Things have kind of quieted down for the most part. I’m scheduled for window tint in 2 weeks so that will change the look a lot. Plans are to have the bed LineX’ed in July and then a nice tonneau cover. I’m saving up for a 6” BDS lift so I’m hoping to have that installed toward the end of the...

    Seems like you’ve made some good progress so far. Laguna green has really become a favorite color over the years. Keep up the updates, the look pretty tasteful.

    If I ever get the chance to pull a dash, it’s possible. I’ve never done one before and don’t know if I could without breaking it. Thanks for the comments guys. We just got back from upnorth today and I spent a few minutes swapping out the license plate & back up lights with LEDs. I have a...

    Well it’s 1:30 am, but I finally got a chance to get on here. I finally was able to pick the truck up yesterday and let me say, the photos absolutely do not do it justice. The body and paintwork on this truck are amazing. He knocked it out of the park. It’s everything I could have imagined and...

    I’m starting to get anxious lol. Knowing I’ll have it back in 3 days is making time drag. The passenger side is completely done and looks absolutely amazing!!! He tinted out my stock taillights for the time being until I get some different lights, but I have to say I love the look!! I really...

    Not entirely. I’ve thought about buying some 15x12 Mickey Thompsons mounted on 35’s just to have as an extra set.

    There is a lot of sentimental value so the choice to go with one solid color wasn’t made lightly. I went back and forth for months to make sure it’s what I wanted. Wheel choices vary right now. I’ve been looking at a larger offset like 22x12 or 22x14 on a 35” tire since it’s only going to be...

    There was a lot of debate on whether I was going to keep the two tone. If I would have kept it stock, I would have kept it. My current plans are for a lift, regear to a 4:56, and then new wheels and tires. I think it will look a lot cleaner with just one color.

    A lot of the photos are screenshots of Snapchats so I’m not sure how clear they are since I’m always on my phone. Seeing this in person is going to be insane lol

    Well it’s in the final stages. Wet sanding is in progress currently. If it goes according to plan, I should have the truck back at the end of next week.
