Crusinsilverado Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 Man that suxs, just one reason i never lend my vehicles out. Lucky you can do the repair yourself not many have that option. The best part about it is you can make sure it is done correctly. Good luck getting it back in shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr84ss Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 great work, looks good as new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2001silverado364 Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 Maybe it's just me but the front fender looks of a lighter color in those pics. Why didn't they just paint the whole side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueAKSSS Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 Looks like nothing ever happened! Although I'm with 2001 I see a color mismatch with that front fender but its probably only noticeable in pictures. Looks excellent otherwise and very nice job redoing it!

Guest JasonHensley22 Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 The pictures of the accident made me scream: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWaLxFIVX1s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssbullet Posted September 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 Yeah I was ready to kill someone. But I made like 4500 off of it so I can complain too much. I don't like other ppl working on my truck. Well this silver when u just reclear it the clearcoat will make the color just a shade darker. It's kinda of like pouring tea in a glass the more u pour the darker it gets. So it would wind up being an all over. I'm goin to paint all the plastics on left side and front n rear bumpers later cuz they r lil more yellow than truck when I bought it and it bugs me. I'm wanting a ram air hood next so I'll do the rest when I get the hood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
