I think a painted bed cover would look good.. (But nobody listens to the dumb old redneck)  *L*

thanks for the compliments guys...i have considered a bed cover....but then again ...i dont want it looking to mini truck
i most definatly need to redo the bedliner....pink isnt my favorite color haha

i would love to drop the front another inch......maybe i will ...who knows

im looking for new bumpers both front and back...im not a fan of the bulldog teeth or the big farm bumper i have in the back

Nice looking truck. I would consider painting the grille black, removing the trim from the tailights, roll pan in the rear, smaller mirrors, removing bumper guards, adding a bed cover, I have an access/laredo roll up cover for mine. Then park it in my driveway.

Your truck looks cool.  I think a bigger exhaust tip would look good on there.

real nice truck. Get a Phantom grille and put a rear bumper from a suburban on it. It doesnt need much at all.

Looks very nice!

I had the same red color as yours, mine had an original solid Apple Red.

Is yours original red? if it is then what's the name of red color? Just curious.

I like your front and back of the bumpers looks fine.

I have the same as yours but it's safer in the heavy traffic areas.

If you take your Truck to the vehicle shows then swap the bumpers will looks good and hope you wins your baby!

thank you ...the exterior is not the original color...it had been repainted when i bought it ...it was two toned red and tan
needless to say it wasnt my cup o tea....luckily working at a paint store...i quickly figured out what color it was..  chili pepper red it is an original gm color but didnt start until 1989  oh well ....when i repainted it i just stuck with that color ...instead of going back original
that way i could just blend it in

You're very welcome, no problem with modified paint.

I like your exterior solid red looks so beautiful than an original 2 toned color.
