Repainted the 3500! (Dial-up beware)







I'm in love. Still need to clean it up a bit, and polish the bumpers and wheels. but it looks SO much better now, the "sport" grill really changes the look. Wasn't getting any love in my other thread, so i made a new one.

Looks good.
I agree how the sport grill really changes the look.
Mine is a 98 sport in blue that has the regular chrome bumpers.

Do you mind if I ask what shop your buddy has in Dallas?
At some point I'm looking at a new paint job.

Looks good in the pics, but is there any orange peel visible in the paint?

Looks good. I'm gonna do mine when she's paid off. I noticed your in Blanco. That's one of our favorite palces to go. The SP that is. It's got a great swimming hole. The boys like to jump off the dam.

mine aren't black unfortunately, they're red, but they'll be easy to paint

replaced my rear w/ a ranch hand, and as soon as I find the right bumper for the right price, the front is getting a full replacement too
