Man, that really does look good with the bolts gone. I know what I'm planning now.

Now Ryan, raise my truck back up and we may have something here.

I have Photoshop and Paintshop, think I'll play a little and see what I come up with.

JBM Sport Truck Accessories sells smoothie paintable front bumpers for $259.00! I'm not much for color matched bumpers on our trucks either.

I kinda like the no-tint clean look. But having tint is nice.

I've got tinted windows, factory tinted before I forget it.

When I bought the truck back in July of 97, the buy I bought it from had someone tint them for him. They looked real good too. They were really dark, too dark I think, but it didnt' matter. When I took it to get it inspected, I had to remove it all, except for the back window. He had a visor thing across the front window, that came down too far also. Had to go.

The inspector told me, they're too dark. He said I will test them and if they are you have to pay anyway, which was 8 bucks. I said forget about it. I go home and take the tint off and come back. He said, ah, what the hell, let me check them and I won't charge you. They were way too dark. Can't remember what the numbers were now.

I must admit, it did look a lot better from the outside with tint. But it sucked driving it at night.
