Tailgate modifications step by step?

I'm in the process of dechroming an 86 GMC 1500. I removed the wide strip form the tailgate and I want to know, from folks that have customized their gates, what did you do and how did you do it. Lets see it photos and explain what\how and how hard was it to do. I don't want to have to rebuild the engine to fix the tailgate.
