Looks great, and I especially like the way you did the rear corners, that looks really sharp! Can't wait to see it finished and in the sun, nice job man!

Can't wait to see it with the clear coat in the daylight! That is some really big metal flake in there. What size tip is required to spray that? Are those your taillight holes in the tailgate? Where are the back-up lights or did you lose them? I can't wait to see the full on shot of the rear of your truck.

Great job man...looks real good. I too really like the way you brought down the black in the orange flake right next to the taillights.
