Cleand up the fount end of old green. + bug defector.

Got bored on the weekend and decided to polish old greens bumper and grill guard. Also straightened the grill guard a bit. Took the grill out and cleaned it to. Was hard to take out with the grill gaurd but I managed. Also decided to install the bug deflector that I had hidden in the rafters. Hers a little before and after. Almost looks like some cares about him now.lol

Your deflector is the cherry on top! Truck looks great! Please share more pics of the rest of her.

The fount end is the best angle for old green. Dont have a pic of the new rear bumper and tailgate together.

Good work. Looks like you swapped the headlights while you were in there. How do you like the LEDs?

Are talking about the rubber pads on the grill guard? The grill gaurd is a laverne.
