I'd be willing to trade a black roof rack for a silver one.

I know this thread is very old but I have essentially the same truck and am considering a setup something like this. It's a 2WD so I'm not looking to go the off-road look, just a clean, classy, good looking truck. Any opinions?

I recently bought an ebay kit for 67.50 shipped. It was SO easy to install, 10 minutes. Literally plug and play. I'm very satisfied with the lights in my 04. I know it's technically illegal due to the lack of projectors, but i've never been flashed, and there is limited glare when put in an...

Any more info/pics on this truck? It's SICK!

Anybody have any experience with this? I am planning on attempting it this weekend. Any tips? Should I wait for warmer weather to avoid any complications? THANKS!

Sure, when I get done from school I should be able to take some pictures. I don't want to promise for today however, it may be by friday or saturday. I painted the inside, and since it doesn't hit much wind/snow/water, it doesn't need to be done as well as the rest of the mirror. Looks great...

A bit of background. I use my horn a lot. I use it definately more than your average driver, not as road rage, but just for fun. A lot of the times my friends and I when commuting (with no cars around) use the horn as a way of conveying laughter (bit of an inside joke). Anyhow, last night I...

It should work. The titanium metallic has some flakes or pearls in it, and the paint that I got has them as well. The store you get your color code mixed into a can will have all the flakes or other components. I'd say grey would be easier to match than silver, as it's darker. Go for it!

They match pretty well. If I'm not 100% satisfied on anything, it'd be the color match. While 8 out of 10 of my friends can't tell, I am a bit of a perfectionist and can see a bit difference. The paint guy explained that, since Titanium Silver (1D4) is a complex code (meaning there are many...

Thanks, but looking to pay under 500! Thanks again!

Haha, I guess the write up was a bit too long to read. I threw on about 4-6 coats of clear. :bigok:

After primer, I went straight to the base coat of silver. I did a good job of light, even coats of primer, so that I had no runs, drips, blotches. I thought I'd sand if I had any of these problems, but I didn't so I skipped it. The primer said you can sand if you want. I don't think there is...

will pay shipping! let me know what you got, with or without tires, scuffs or not, let me know!

Heres where I messed up. Between coats, I did not wait until the paint COMPLETELY DRIED, and flipped over the mirror onto newspaper. When I came back out, the newspaper had stuck to the paint, causing a mess. I eventually just sanded the affected parts down, and continued painting; MESS UP is...

6.) Proceed by removing the (3) 10MM bolts that hold the mirror in place, and reach down and disconnect the wire connecting the mirrors power functionalities. 7.) Repeat this for the other door panel. You now have both mirrors off of the truck. PHASE 3: PREP 1.) Begin prepping the...
