Re: Finally!!! 6.0 POWAH!!!!

well, went over to start putting it back together. pooped the hood, what a mess.
rear lights not working. hmmm....im guessing they did not cover the engine bay when wet sanding...wtf? Anyone with a brain would say, "cover that"...
I am putting it on craigslist as we speak, I'm tired of it. Sorry no pics.

Re: Finally!!! 6.0 POWAH!!!!

I'm with bigarmzz you'll regret it in the end I think. Maybe the break lights are as simple as a missed connection or ground? I wish you luck with whatever your choice is though.

Re: Finally!!! 6.0 POWAH!!!!

You have one of the sweetest trucks on the forum. Hopefully a little clean up here and there and maybe a little touching up and she'll be good as new. Hope to see you keep your truck man. The last pics of the paint looked really good. Keep your head up bud. Truck is sick!

Re: Finally!!! 6.0 POWAH!!!!

dude thsoe billet decals go great with the paint job..
next time throw a wrench or something allright!
i had that moment earlier this weel threw a 15mm wrench behind me as hard as i could, it managed to hit my portable shop light straight in the bulb and just exploded (bulb was caged) took a moment and unplugged it, removed the wrench form the cage and laughed.. it felt great getting that angry "luck shot"...

take a breath man, tha's a sick ass truck and youll never get the money you put into it back especially if the potiential buyer picks up on the fact that you are pissed at it..

p.s. who did your airbrushing.. that's incredible

Re: Finally!!! 6.0 POWAH!!!!

Buddy, that thing is freaking sick! The paint issues would be VERY easily overlooked if my truck looked half that good. It is absolutely an impressive looking paint job. The airbrushing is sick too! Looks freakin awesome. Thanks for sharing the pics.
