Thanks the paint is Omni brand by PPG.

The front grille really pulls it together, and makes a world of difference. I think what does it for me, is the bumper is still flush with the grille, for the most part. I like that better. The 'step' is still visible, in front of the fenders, but hey, I'll just watch and see how that fills out. Lights are probably going to pull that together nicely.
Thanks Nate I still have some more parts coming that should stir up a whole new debate about the truck.

Thanks Ben I am getting eager to see it done myself.

I'm loving the whole feel of your ride. I think orange is a perfect color to.

Like the fenders, some nice work there, but my taste is not the bumper. Will be a nice rig, though.
