Thats gonna look sick, I like the white line too! You should do something to match it on the hood too!

Do the door handles too.

Also Craig. You can remove the lights and grill faster than you taped em off ... And it makes for a nicer edge to the paint when there isnt any cause its behind the light housing. Get yourself a roll of "Fine Line" tape to make your edge with, then the fat green stuff, it peels the edge so much sharper. Take off things like the cowl and wipers and mirrors and visor and hood and gas door and bumpers and paint them separatly, again so you get the nice edges and no lines and can paint the hard to get places better, less taping and wont start to peel or anything if there is less little edges in the paint for water to sit. I cant wait to paint mine after winter!

@xgiovannix12 thanks

@Brian the moment I get rock rails, I'm taking off the steps lol. might be taking them off sooner as the driver side one is barely attached anymore.

@ofsofly thanks for the advice, I didn't think about it.

Craig you should get some cool center caps for those wheels too! Maybe a set of red lugnuts to tie it all together!
