PICS... just painted my bumper+grille

[m8r8j]

both used to be a nasty gray color since my truck is a base model, so i painted the grille gloss black and the bumper gloss white. the empty spot on the bottom middle of the bumper looks good, imo. im going to put two round foglights in it.

if ur truck is white, the white krylon fusion is a perfect match... if you paint the top metal part of your bumper, make sure to rough it up a little with some fine grit paper, then prime it with automotive primer. then you can use fusion on it... i also put a light coat of clearcoat over it.

I see your back window says Hoosier, do you live in Indiana?

If you're good with a dremel and like the empty spot in the middle....cut out those side pockets too. It would look really slick with some foglights in those side pockets AND the middle open...IMO. And I love the window!!!!! Looks like my old tailgate.

MY 200TH POST!!!! YAY ME!! lol
