Re: Tailgate ?

Re: Tailgate ?

The top of the letters on those gates appear to be even with the top of the taillight and stock gate letters are even with the taillight bulb.

Re: Tailgate ?

I don't know if it's a skin or not, but I like it! It would have to be on the right truck, though.

Re: Tailgate ?

at least two of the pictures are photo shopped. The yellow one in gringolocos and and silver one was shopped for sure. I don;t think you can buy this skin. You would have to make it.

Re: Tailgate ?

Found it:

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...ailgate+custom

Check out posts 13-16, I believe they are all photoshops, except maybe the silver/blue truck, there's a guy that's seen it in person, but he didn't say if that photo was real or photo shopped.
