looks good... That poor bumper!!!! what the hell hit that thing? I see yellow wires, I say driving lights somewhere??? Change the color of the bowtie the flat black just isnt doing it.. i know its your truck but when i paint stuff, i paint to be noticed.. Just my 2 cents..if you want a set of custom painted turn signal lenses done just holler.........you just need to send me those lights so i can do them and i`ll get them back to you asap...

I actually took the chrome strip off the grille before painting mine.
I don't know what colour black my truck is but I found a gloss "Midnight Black" "touch up" spray & it looks absolutely stock.
I guess too that black is an easier colour to work with. I gave it about 4 clear coats.

That grill looks fantastic! It also looks like you painted the headlight bezels. I know what I'm going to do in a couple weeks!

looks good i may know about the not shiny tho. how long did you wait between paint and clear that can have some effect

Just smoked the turn signals and tail lights today. They are awesome and i checked to see if you can see em at night and they work fine. all i did was use the car paint from advanced mix 10% black with 90% clear.
Next project is repainting that bumper.

Looks good... it's too bad it's so hard to match paints. You can see the strip is a little lighter than the rest. I still love it though. If the chrome on my grille wasn't integral to the look I was going for I'd be spraying mine to match like you did.
Good job.
Can I ask what happened to the bumper? looks like it got backed into a couple of times, or did you go bulldozing through some brush? lol
