Re: [Project] Slow Motion...

Lowering the truck is easy.

And, I think a chrome bumper would look good on there.

Re: [Project] Slow Motion...

^i like that alot

lowering is done, just waitin on the tires so it doesn't rub.
i dont think ill be gettin a chrome bumper unless i get it for a good price and i can just test it, but other then that its gonna be like this for awhile.

Re: [Project] Slow Motion...

So the truck has been through alot.

In one year the truck went from...


to this...






Big change, huh?
Well I'm pretty satisfied with the turnout. Small mods and parts throughout the year brought it to this.

Re: [Project] Slow Motion...

Alright, so the exterior is pretty much done for now, except for a beg rug or bed cover (not sure which to get yet)
Next projects will be interior but I wont be able to start that until I get settled as I move out and ready to start school.


Interior plans:
-Chromed air vents
-Painted dash to color match exterior (Silver w/light blue accents)
-Paint door panels to color match (Silver w/ light blue accents)
-Carpeted floors
-Bucket seats (Silver w/ light blue material)

Audio Plans:

-Add another 10' sub
-New Amp
-Get new custom box built for two 10's
-New head unit
-New Door and dash speaker

Both of these plans will be coming along slowly but surely. So if you have anything that could help, feel free to suggest.
Keep watching my thread as I build it till I'm "done."

Thanks,

Antonio

Re: [Project] Slow Motion...

looks great man. interior plans sound good too. Might I suggest if you do a bed rug, to have a bed cover over it, and don't just leave it exposed to weather conditions. Bed rugs do look nice though

alright thanks for that, I really want a bed cover and a bed rug will come later, when the truck is all "done"

I'm looking for a good quality low profile bed cover that can be color matched but all the ones I see are high or cant be painted. Still looking....

Re: [Project] Slow Motion...

i can't think of anything minor to work on with the truck... maybe spray the calipers and drums grey or black. Clean up the frame and paint down there?
Spray in bed liner? I don't know man... looks pretty good as is! lol
