I can't remember if your putting a decal kit back on it or not, but man I love the look of it without.  It looks so freakin tough!

no i had a friend of mine paint it

yea im putting decals back on just trying to figure out which way im going to go.i was going to go gold but there are so many black and gold ones.i think im going to go with silver decals and change the grills and the wheels from gold to silver.
