Next I installed yellow lamin-x film ($20) and cut the grille to fit street scene mesh grille inserts that I grabbed brand new off eBay for $100

Installed the retrofit depo headlights and tried out a blue brushed aluminum vinyl wrap to at least cover the gold bowtie for now. Also vinyl smoked just the corners of the turn signal housings

Well tried to put clear film over the brushed vinyl . Since the brush has a slight texture the clear wouldn’t lay right. Not sure if I did something wrong , new at this wrap stuff
So off it came lol

Before that went on a road trip back down to Homer , AK. Picked up my mom and bright her back to Anchorage for Mother’s Day/Birthday weekend. Truck ran good. Headlights worked great. And best of all mom rode in comfort and style

Started on the grille . Put some FiberFix filter glass patches on the typical cracking spots for these grilles to prevent future cracking or splitting. Then sanded for paint

Sanded and smoother out some imperfections which included wrinkles in the chrome.
