I used fine steel wool to remove the gray paint around the lug holes and to clean all the chrome. I also used it on my front bumper. It works great on chrome. I dunno about the emblem stickers...

I don't have any, and I would sure love to have a decent pair

Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

Well I know I'm not going anywhere in my truck this weekend, and next weekend is my kids birthday. So maybe if I plan for the 18th, and the good Lord blesses my truck, I'll be able to bring you a load of parts Joe. I'll be sure to look for a decent set of bezels and a grille for you, if nothing else I'll have a grille emblem you can paint and make look decent on what you have.

What I can remember you said you wanted:
left rear door
left front door
right front door
tail lamp lenses

I have 4 of the newer skinny trim rings, I'd like to find a pair of wider rings for the rear though....

Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

I still got you on my list Joe, just gotta get my beast running a tad better before I take off on a road trip. Having second thoughts of getting rid of my front doors though

My wife says I change my mind more than any woman she knows though, so who knows.

You know those wheels arent going to fit when you swap that thing to a 1 ton 4x4.

Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

a guy I know just sold a set of those. They look bronze in the light. Sold for $300. Wish I knew you'd be interested.

Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

If Randy decides to keep his doors you are still welcome to my passenger one Joe if you need it. I know I am moving at a snails pace on my truck but if you need it quick we could go ahead a jerk the door off and hang one of my new ones in it's place one day.

Thanks!

I'd buy your ccsb so you can make room for a 4x4 ccsb.

If you are going 4x4, you need a dually.
