Going to stay with the original CST wood grain trim.

The replacement cab I have is factory orange so I am going to strip it down to get it painted correctly. The original truck was turq so thats why I chose the color. I HAVE been contemplating a midnight blue but, so far, the turq is where I am sticking at.

I think I am going to replace the cross member. Website says its $49.00 so its not bad. I have he truck down to the frame right now in the garage so just waiting for the weather to clear up and some cash so I can get it ready for powder coating.

You do look close in Aledo. Maybe can meet up sometime to take a look and get some opinions.
I'm @ 820 & 30 (camp bowie ). I'm off fri,sat,and sun. If you need help removing crossmember let me know.
