Getting painted White Diamond Pearl on Tues
(a whole gallon, with extra pink and gold pearl)

Pulled the roof racks off today!

Wheels running board and grill will be painted to match

I want it lower. Thinking about doing air next

My big one on my wish list is a stock floor body drop

Looks good, not a huge fan of those wheels or the vent visors tho. What springs did you use for the rear?

the vent visors were on when i bought it. Probably coming off pre paint.

I like the wheels because i wanted something to show off the paint color so i needed alot of face. And i needed somethintg with this exact offset. (they dont poke out at all and will actually let me tuck the tires just a hair.

I used the djm 5 inch springs in the back and have the bellteck nitro2 drop shocks to be put on tomorrow. (we are going to try to coax an extra inch by sinking the mounts when we remove the bump stops)

ps 6 of us in it.. no bottoming out.. and only scrubs lightly and mostly even then only on hard turns (still have 100% turning radius)

Welcome! Looks real good!

Front looks nice and low but the rear could come down another 2" or so. I pulled my isolators from the coil buckets and got about 4.5" from my belltech 4" coils. I'd recommend some airlift helper bags too, they're cheap sway control and make the truck ride nicer. Should look dope with the fresh paint :cheers:

Yea i think thats what he was talking about doing tomorrow when we put the shocks on.

The paint is supposed to basically shift from gold to purple to pink. and we are painting accent points under the pearls . But pretty much look white at night.

Dropping it off tuesday so i guess ill have some pics up by fri.

We are actually painting the wheels to match because we wont be able to get the color and flip flop in powder.
