Looks good bro. Just curious, why are you getting the bed cladding painted?

 

i am painting the whole truck! i dont know if you have ever noticed, but our cladding and our bodys are different colors. one color, one bucket... now it all matches. did that answer you? other wise give me more detail of what you mean?

welp. other than the hood and tailgate. she's painted! what a late night, 1:30 is when i got home this morning. i cant be happier with what i saw last night once the clear coat fumes cleared. here are some pics. OH and the SS you see in the paint is the white Cady Escalade Pearl.

 

lemme know what you think, it will make the Iowa meet tomorrow. today after work i get to assemble and clean. I will get pics as i go, but cant wait til i get it polished next week.

 

it paid off, its sick, the whole product is just what i pictured, clean, SSmooth, SShaven, and just one step beyond the NORM... enjoy the pics. real camera pics to come soon.
