Heres my tailgate
Im not real happy with the way this one turned out. Everybody else seems to think its nice, but im probably going to go get another one from a junk yard and do it over again.

I actually really like it lol. It's one of my favorite fonts (actually what my sig has in it now lol). The only thing I would say is to body fill the door handle if you plan on keeping the bowtie there.

Yep. Im shaving both handles as soon as I install my alarm and door poppers "maybee tomorrow" Then all I have left to buy is my hood, bumper cover, and roll pan.Then paint then ill drop it, then wheels, then interior.
Well I spent a whole day screwing around with my alarm and door poppers, neither of wich are installed as of now.
I did get half of the carbon laid up on the grill, so Ill have the whole thing done tomorrow, maybee even put it on for a test fit.

Well, I havent been able to touch the body kit for days now. But I have been busy. I finished the carbon fiber on the upper grill. I added some House of Kolor ultra fine prismatic metal flake to the resin. It is unbelieveable in the sunlight. I hope I can get a good pic on here soon. I got the passenger side door jamb and inner part of the door painted. I also painted the bowtie for the front grill and the one for the tailgate "after I snaped one in half and had to fix it".

I tried to get a good pic of the finish on the carbon fiber on my grill, but the color in the metal flake just doesnt show up in the pics. I tore down some of the front today, installed the mesh insert, fabricated a pair of carbon fiber door handle fillers, filled the passenger handle, test fit the sierra grill, and sculpted a little more of the body kit.
Because the clear cote sucks on my tailgate, I think im going to paint the tailgate white, then peel the sticker off so that the lettering shows up in carbon.
