Well, got it off yesterday after we went to the fair. Cleaned it, sanded it, didnt smooth it out, just sanded it to roughen it up a little. Sprayed it with primer, then hit it again with sand paper, then laid a couple coats of Duplicolor Exact Match on it. Here is a sneak peek of how it sits off the truck...

Forgot to mention also, I changed my mind on color matching my current tails...they are going to be replaced with aftermarket ones...I have been a fan of the afterburner tails on the 3rd gens, and I found these on ebay...

I was gonna buy new tails tonight, but I think my truck needs some tint before tails, so, I bought tint tonight, getting my bull bar on April 2nd then these tails, the bezels will be color matched before they are installed though.

I am finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel here, recovering from the kids birthdays, Christmas and some unfortunate incidents that would not allow me much money at all to buy mods. So little by little I will be getting things now for the truck.

never rush things Adam, sometimes deals fall in our laps...when you rush things you spend more money cause you think you know what you want, then you find what you really wanted, your doing great with the truck, pc by pc, thats how all of us have to work, only a select few can just dump money hand over fist....

I'm digging the taillight's though man... I have contemplated going full LED tail's on my '98 but have been waiting to see one with em. I've never seen those before. Curious as to how there gonna' look on mizz Rubizilla. I may have to play copy cat if they look good.

Looks like you did a great job on the bumper cap, and those tails would look freaking sweeeet on your truck color matched how your saying. And adam Jay is absolutely right. Well all in all great work Adam!!

okay, bumper cap is back on...it's not perfect, but for some reason this Duplicolor was a little harder to work with this time. Might have been the cap itself making it harder though...
