I think I am going to do a little work to my rims. I like the black center with a polished lip. That or I need new rims.;)

So is the bumper painted? or aftermarket?

the truck looks deadly:cool2:

its the stock bumper painted if you prep the chrome good the paint will stick great if you dont it will peel, the plastic is not painted it keeps it factory looking same with the grill just painted the center bar to keep a clean look the bowtie started out red but it only lasted a day i like it black better . i just got my carbon fiber tailights on and a new tailgate spoiler by lund is in route, not sure if the rear bumper is going black or if a roll pan is going on, i dont really want it to look like a teenagers truck, just clean and looks fast standing still :D thanks for compliments guys, btw the black with a chrome lip rims are on my 64 gmc the ones on the diesel are the same as in the before pic just powdercoated ;)

I want to powder coat my bumpers but i'm affraid to remove the plastic and not be able to get it back on. Should I find another set to do this with or just attack the ones on the truck???? My truck is an 05' BTW, slighty different but at least I can get an idea.

no it was not scratched but there was some lines around the outer edges of the flares but they buffed out with some rubbing compound

the palstic is not that bad to get of just dont break the tabs that pop into the bumper, you will be fine, i might get mine powdercoated one day it wont take long for the paint to get beat up .
