Fiesty one of my buddies lives down the street from you. He drives a flat black Toyota taco to and from work. Has a black lbz in the garage he is doing some work to.
He called me last night telling me he saw a beautiful red dmax. Turns out it was yours.

tell him to come say hello sometime. Does he live on McGoodwin? We might be neighbors lol
I'm not sure what street he lives on. I'll tell him to drop by. He is a member on here. Has a black crew lbz with Danville 72 and lots of other goodies
Removed the drop shackles a couple days ago and installed the stock ones. It used to sit 42/40 now it's 42/42 level. I'll prob get some keys and crank the front a bit higher when I get new tires in a couple months.
I also picked up a Hummer wheel with a brand new tire for $50. It will probably be my spare. Picked up these tires for my brother's truck for when his Hostile Exiles come in. They are brand new Fuel Mud Grippers in a 33/12.50/20. I got 5 so I may use it if I decide to go with those tires, or I'll sell it. Got 5 new Fuel tires for $1100.

I had it done. Bought paintable non-chrome bumpers off a work truck half ton model and had my painter spray them.
I had my chrome bumpers powder coat colormatched to Tue factory gm color. That way rock chips won't do damage like they would to paint
nice.. these have held up alright. They have been on 2 trucks in 3 years so the front has its fair share of rock chips.
i just sanded the texture out of all the plastics i painted until it was smooth. for then my painter used a couple coats of filler primer then sanded smooth before he painted. for the chrome on my grille, i used a razor blade and peeled all of the chrome off. underneath is smooth plastic which paint will adhere to better than the chrome. for the mirrors, i traded my chrome 01-02 caps for 03-07 black textured ones. then sanded them smooth. i took apart and sanded smooth the door handles as well, although you can get smooth ones on amazon for under $15 each. much easier.
I left the plastics black, need a little contrast still. I just covered everything that was previously chrome in my gm color in powdercoat.
