Some changes...

As many of you know I had a big sticker on my back window, had it on for the better part of 3 years. I have a tool box in the bed and part of the sticker was covered up by the box so I decided to remove it. Let me know what you think.

Now:


Also I tried to tint my windows and that did not go well, I'll just call it a epic fail... So I went to a local tint shop and had it done. Truck is very dirty.




Painted the tail gate handle. It was a hot one yesterday!






And another side shot just because. All pictures were taken with my iPhone, so not the best.


I need to clean the truck. :bang:

Also did the mirror caps today, I'll get them installed some time this week.

I got the plate from Delaware Historic Plate Company, the black and white tages were used in the early 1900 in Delaware. We have the option of buying a black and white tag if the numbers are low enough, the tag it's self is porcelain enamel tag. The lower the number the tag the more the tag is worth. There is a long story if you like to read about some of the first state history. http://www.dhptags.com/delawareplatehistory.aspx

Thank you for the complements fellas!

Does any one know how to remove the mirror caps?

looks good! i tried removing the mirror caps on my truck they didnt want to come off, not sure if they clip on or there double stick taped. i masked them off with tape and painted the caps on the mirror. i want to paint my tailgate handle, how can i remove the handle? any bolts holding it or they clip on?

Thanks!

The tail gate has three bolts and be careful with the bezel, the bottom clips can break easy, just play with it until it come out.

The caps are held on with 4 clips and double side tape.

i like the color matching! i went ahead and painted my tailgate handle today. gonna paint my door handles next, how do i remove the door handles? do i have to remove the door panels or do they clip on also?

You have to remove the door panels too. Kind of a pain, if I remeber correctly I think there are 2-3 bolts holding door handle on.

[Chevytruck]

There are 3 behind the door panel, and one that you have to get to from the side of the door jam there is a rubber grommet that you remove. All of the nuts are 10MM.
