    When to the lake today to run my dog and chill. It's been a very mild winter here. Usually in February it's usually minus f@$king cold! But lately especially today it got upwards to 60+ so it's been really nice. And a few pics .:waytogo:

    So I've been contemplating on Plasti Dipping my 18s. Since I just put new tires on my stockies I've been rolling on those for a while but now it's spring I can bring out the summer grips. So here's a before and after pic what do you guys think?

    So before

    So finally got some time to Plasti Dip my all of my wheels. Also put some new brake shoes in the drums. I freaking hate drum brakes such a pain in the ass. But I think the project turned out good. Here's some eye candy......:waytogo:

    Thanks! I was a little worried about the Plasti Dip cuz when I first started painting it was going on really rough looking but after it dried, it layed down nice and flat. So I'll keep using it in the future for little stuff here and there. :waytogo:

    Doesn't look half bad. Maybe do the centercaps in red.

    That sounds tempting. But my lug nuts are chrome as well. I'll have to keep that in mind. I bet they would look good red.

    Ok so I've been slacking lately. Two weekends ago I went camping. We had a 4 wheeler brake down so I was the one to go save it. On my way some moron on his dirt bike wasn't looking where he was going and ran right into my truck. I wasn't going very fast and neither was he. He hit my passenger front fender. He's ok, no broken bones just his pride was hurt. At the time I thought the dent wasn't bad but when I got back and looked at it, it was bad. So Sunday I went out looking for some 4WD fenders. And BINGO! Found some and a map light too. So now to save some mo money and have my truck fully painted. :waytogo:

    So I want to be clear on this. Will the 4WD fenders fit with no problems? Like I can just do the fender swap and everything will still fit and look proper, or do I need more?

    They'll fit no problem. The bumper will look tucked in sideways a little but it's liveable.
