Good to hear buddy. Better to spend a ton of time on prep then regret it later.

Ok so heres what I got done today:
Mirrors sanded and ready
Door handles sanded and ready
Tailgate handle sanded and ready
Wiper cowel sanded and ready
Bumper and grille sanded and ready
All that needs done now is to go over it all with some 400 grit and also scuff up the inside of the bed, under the hood and door jambs. I'm not to worried about the inside of the bed because I am going to put a bed rug in it anyways.

Door handles...I'm telling you. I know you want black accents but please re-consider the door handles.

I'll think about it... is there a possibility of a chop made so I could see the two and compare them?

Looks like you been hard at lil buddy! Nice work! I'm with Dave on the door handles...
You thought about the street scene mirrors? I think they'd be a nice touch, just food for thought.

Gotcha, I just think it would be a little cleaner look. Dodge sure does make some big dorky mirrors... but whatever blows your skirt up!

The truck hasn't been forgotten about... just took a little break is all. Tomorrow is the big day when all sanding will be COMPLETE!!!
Tuesday will be when we are going to build the paint booth around the truck. Primer should be lain down by the end of the week!
