A good detailer can do paint repair and correction. let a pro handle it.There is a thing called a 3m eraser wheel to take off all that residue from the removal of the moulding. Yeah, I know I’m fired for not mentioning it before you did it the hard way…I don’t personally like toppers unless you are sleeping back there. I like open beds or covers that allow you to use the open bed, the essence of a truck. Otherwise you have a suburban…but you already have one…Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
I am also thinking hard about what I may do with the spare tire carrier. Part of me says to just toss it since that expensive wheel and tire broke off and rolled away, and I also think about getting rid of the topper and just adding a tonneau cover.It is now faded a little, so it, too, would have to get a repaint.But another part of me likes the truck with that tough-looking utility topper. I could just remove it, paint it too and reinstall it and go for another 11 years.Thoughts?

What are the chances? Maybe use better cardboard on the welding table next time.
Was going to ask. I just made a run and got 18.8, but you have a better turbo and exhaust.Sweet. I don't think it looks funny, just what I'm used to.

I don't think it looks funny, just what I'm used to.Need to read a little further, JR. Made the same run and got 21.3. It was showing 22.3 for some of the trip, then came the hills!BTW, the seat leather just came in. It looks pretty good.Ordering the Dyna-mat sound deadener from SummitEdit: I have this automatic price scanner installed on my computer. I loaded the Dynamat sound deadener into the cart at Summit which was some $369 before tax. The program posted a link to save money. I followed the link to Amazon where I bought the same item number for $281!It's enroute...

Need to get mine redone, 15 years old. Pass is gone and drivers is pealing.Only issue I ever had was backing up at night, I have to roll the windows down.
And use the "spare tire" as a stop?

I seen a post not to long ago where a guy took his headliner and painted it with that upholstery type stuff all black! It looked great Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
When I tool my drivers seat out the crud was nasty and I'm the careful one!
