Should be completed tomorrow, so pics will be on tomorrow night. The ******* kid that's doing it took over a week. But ive seen it a couple times and it looks pretty amazing.

Also, nobody buy a single thing from DJTricky. He screwed me out of $15. I sent him the money for a high-4 kit and he hasn't been on since the 7th. Thanks to him I won't be able to do that mod to my truck.

ill sell you a high 4 kit for $20 shipping included :D

Lol no thanks. I had planned on installing the high 4 kit along with my headlights and HID's since my grille would be off and everything but thanks to DJTricky that didn't happen. So im just not gonna do it. Don't feel like taking everything apart again just for that small mod.

Oh wow really? Well in that case I might just go buy the stuff and make my own kit and do it one day. Unless you wanna sell me one for $10 shipped? :D

Well he told me his grandma passed away awhile ago so he had to go take care of that. Which is fine, I totally understand that and said to just ship it out whenever he was able to. But I sent him the money a month and a half ago, and there's no excuse IMO why someone can't take an hour to go to the store, buy everything, package it up and go to the post office and send it out.

It's ******* irritating as hell. If only I didn't send him $15 cash through the mail. :emotions122:

Finally got some pics. It still needs to be washed down with Sno Bol toilet cleaner, get a good wash, clear the hood and take paint thinner to the over-spray areas. It turned out great though.

Looks real good...except I would of kept the side mirrors black and keep the pillars black to break up all that white.

What grille insert is that by the way?

Well half of the reason why I wanted to color match the mirrors is because they are pretty ugly looking. A lot of scratches and stuff, especially the driver's side which got scraped up against a brick wall pretty bad.

Here is the grille inserts: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220619711410
