Added a few stripes to the box and rear fenders yesterday. My buddy Dan came by and helped me get all the bed/fender bolts tightened up after the stripening job then we got the tailgate and taillights back on.

Bolted the licence plate to the rear frame cross member and found a convenient spot for the light in an existing hole in the bed cross member. I hope it doesn't end up being too low in the future..

Do lowered trucks have tube bumperettes? Maybe... maybe they do. Picture it with an 8ish" piece cut out of the center.

Got 2 of the 4 proposed attachment points welded on. Still on the fence about tube bumpers..

Rethinking the rear bumper idea... so the bed floor went in. Had to notch a couple of the 2x4 supports to clear bolts otherwise it went in pretty mint. OK, the drivers front corner is high for some reason. Just ignore that part..

Random Chevy shots of the day. Have to figure out a little enclosure for the fuel filler..

So the rear bumper may have turned into a step on one side.. Because unsymmetrical is the new symmetrical.

Finished up the stepperette last night and it turned out kinda cool looking lol.
