Hands down one of the cleanest body mods you can do to these trucks... You did a great job!

Looks great, but I'd miss the wiper. Did you blend on to the quarter panels when you painted it? If not, can you tell the difference in color?

no didnt have to, the panels are not large enough to blend. plus there are variant chip cards to match the paint to a tee. most whites are good colors to match, black also. the worst are silver & gold. ive been painting & doing body work for 6 years nowso matching colors isnt to bad. just side panels are the panels that you have to blend, all colors except black. thanks

Both of your trucks look really good. Good work allDenali. Black, did you do your yourself. The back wiper is pretty much pointless on these trucks so I would like to do mine one day to but would def have to pay someone.

I think they look nice gone, but if you need to pay $300+ to get it done, then it's not worth it :imo: ,but if you can do it yourself I would do it ASAP.

That and getting rid of those ugly ass stock vents.. via caddys or smoothies.. are 2 of the biggest rear mods , that just , well, EVERYONE should do... imo
