I asked because I was wondering if you would paint the black plastic white there also. I thought you may be pulling it out for some rigid leds.

Gotcha. No, I don't like all the rigid lights. And I don't want to paint all the black white. It's overkill IMO but we will see once she's in the air.

I think once you have the headlights painted the inner black plastic would look good white. With the outer ring left black for definition and depth.

All things will be considered as the build progresses. There's a lot that I haven't posted.

I am trying to steer clear of painting black pieces white. I think it becomes overkill when everything ends up white. Not to say I won't make adjustments as things come together, but at the moment that's my thought process.

He's a good friend. Would stop anything to help a brother out.

Thanks for the compliment!

Few more updates...

Had the exhaust PCd. Came out really good. Very happy with the outcome. It is black textured PC. We wanted the exhaust to be subdued and blend in with the frame so it doesn't stick out, plus did not want any issues with corrosion or rust.

Just a small teaser from the boys at FTS...

Phil @fastheadlights knocked out a badass set of headlights for us with the switchback boards top/bottom, FXR projector swap, and frosted LED panels all painted up summit white to match Becky..

Last but not least... front end shot of the grill done. Still got a few more parts going out to paint including the chrome valance.
(LEDs are not busted in the pic, its just how they came out in the pic)

Ended up working a deal with HSP Diesel and getting their intake, hot and cold side piping, and new bridge. All powdercoated white. And in the process I am now a dealer for them. :)

Pulling some more parts for paint this week and hoping to get the truck deleted/tuned and amp steps on by the weekend.

As long as our wheels show up from American force this week, she will be going up in the air the week of 10/5.
