Yes I know the rear bumper has to go. I have to get an original one. That's next on the list. Thanks again for all your compliments!

Re: Before and after
I can vouch for the hard to remove my truck was painted black this way....it realy wasn't that bad but it fills the paper pretty quick ....since you put yours on over primer and mine was over paint your might be a bt more work but for you who cares...

Re: Before and after
My dream is to have an "after" picture of mine some day. Unfortunately it will probably have to be an "after the accident" or "after the fire" picture
