Just sittin here wishin I had my truck back but I dont, so I decided to write about it!!! It is in the shop gettin painted, I had all handles shaved, the antenna, tail lights, third brake light, bodyline, mirrors, and molded in the R/T flares. The entire bed was outfitted with polished aluminum diamond plate, and some billet mirrors were added. Its gettin painted pretty much the color orange-gold that the bagged ram on 24's in the truckin cover is with silver flames, the front is orange flames over silver, then into silver over orange flames!! looks bad ass on paper. Should have her all put back together by begining of febuary. just felt like tellin somebody!!! peace and good luck with everyones truck!!! %-6

Wow....sounds sweet man, can't wait to see some pics of that. Can I have your R/T wheels? =)

:edited:

Hey I noticed in another post, (if I read it right) you said you don't have your wheel well covers on??

If so, do you still have the front pair? Would you be interested in selling them?

Actually, I need alot of pieces, and I have a flame red RC as well, so if you could PM me with anything you have for sale, inside and out, like door panels, front valance, etc etc, I would appreciate it.

Thanks alot.

Sounds Sweet. What did you do for taillights?

I wish I could go without my truck for that long. I had to bag mine in a weekend because I can't afford a rental car. That is also why I will be shaving all the stuff on my truck myself. Its a lot more satisfying when you know you've done all the work. Not saying paying someone is bad, otherwise a lot of business' would be out of work.

Can't wait to see pics.
Well Some of us would like it done right the first time, I am an eletrician, not a bodyman......I know I wouldnt have done a show quality job so I paid a professional to do a quality job! As far as tail lights they are 6 in L.E.D's in the roll pan.

It's already February basically and I haven't gotten my truck back from the shop yet. They got the new bed in but it's becoming a bitch to get in a new front seat (supposedly), and the bumper just cam e in two days ago. I pointed out that they scratched and dented the cab when reinstalling the bed cover, I honestly don't know why they thought they would get away with it. So they're gonna repaint it and paint up the bumper all in one shot. Hopefully but butt-fuck Tuesday I get my truck back. !sex
