    You put the flares on yet? Either way..what kinda tape are you using to secure them? I used 3m double sided red tape last time and that stuff was pretty thick for my liking. Flares sat a little far from the body and you could see the tape down the crack. Im looking for something just as strong, but a little thinner so the flares can be snug up next to the body.

    If you could, see what kind of tape they're using.

    Hood & Bumper going in for paint next, all prepped and ready to go.

    Kingst3r: They used a double sided tape, wasnt 3m. but it was just thin, just like oem 2 way tape. Sits under the lip perfectly.

    More pics coming,

    Your entire truck is bad ass, but my favorite part, hands down, is the gauge cluster.

    Nice job but would you be offended if I told you I didn't believe your truck was a 99? Only 98 had the odometer readout like that, in 99 it went to digital lit not lcd backlit.
