I think what I completely dislike about it is the headlights. Big headlights with tiny little projectors and then random LEDs just looks awful to me. I also angled my bumper ends to flow with the contour of the headlights better.

I haven't had much progress done on it lately due to having to organize an event this weekend.

Here is a photo of it from this weekend.

My Bad Ta^Guy , I thouhg tthe blue was Yours, I should pay closer attention, Yours is an Ext. Cab Xtreme and the other one was a standard cab.

I like the custom bumper on yours as well. I can see where You're coming from when You're talking about the projectors too.

looks awsome, I like the look of the bumper molded with the body kit. throw some white primer on it though, it would look alot cleaner for the time being.

Due to having problems with the truck lately I haven't been modding it much.

I still haven't found what was wrong with it so I just take my motorcycle on nice days for now.

This is what I got done yesterday and today.

I had to make a flange for the front headlight. The flange is actually shaped like a backwards 'S', what a paint it was to get the compound curves into it. That is why you see so many cuts into it. I plan on taking off the primer, and welding the seams before I mud it.

Thanks that photo of it on the truck was with a partical skim coat of filler. I have since sanded that down and put a full coat on. I haven't sanded it level yet because I'm waiting for a friend to return my long board inline sander.

i started reading this thread when you first started on it and i rediscovered it again tonight. that front end is so aggressive... i wanted to do it too but i had no intentions of ever actually doing it. i'm glad you followed through with it. mad props and best of luck

Probably one of my favorite threads on S10 forum. I'm glad you went through and did the front end conversion, it looks great and it's not even done yet. I do have one question however.

How easy are the headlights to be removed and installed again? Like say a rock is kicked up by a truck in front and cracks the housing, will it be easy to remove? In no way am I doubting you because you do amazing work, I'm just wondering if it is easy to put in and take out.
