Dude, this was a great video! Thanks for taking the time to put it together. 👍
Thank you! Glad to help out!
Great job buddy! I bought that same front sport bumper cover. You wouldn’t believe how much trouble it was to get it to fit. I saw you just throw that thing on and I was like “what” lol
Much better color matched!
Grill looks good. Almost looks black chrome
I like the grill...matches the wheels and badges
Thanks! That’s what I was thinking too
I just brought the same truck. You gave me great ideas thank you
Glad to help! Enjoy the new truck!
Oh damn!!! I was looking to do the same. Awesome video. I know you didn't do a "how to" on the plastic welder, but that was cool too see you use it. Truck looks great!
Thank you! Pretty straight forward on the plastic welder. Good luck on your conversion it’s definitely worth it!
Bro you killed this! I'm ordering the parts for my truck as we speak. I needed this inspiration.
Glad to help! Good luck with it, it’ll be so worth it in the end! Here’s another video, more of a how to if you’re interested.

Tint all the lights and windows will make the transition even better nice work man
Already sold, but I agree that would’ve looked nice!
Awesome work! Rear tailgate was extremely good! Also paint the mirrors white!
Thank you!
Looks excellent! Personally I’d round up to $420 even!
Haha thanks!
Go Coast Guard! Love videos man. Keep up the good work.
Thank you!
Do a 100% chrome delete. Black inserts in the grille. Black wheels. Smoked headlights and taillights
I already sold the truck but that’s the first thing the new owner did to it lol I’m not much of a chrome fan in the first place, I was just giving it a try to see how it’d look
Job well done on this!! I’m hoping to have mine all paint matched one of these days.
Thanks! It’s sure worth it!
New sub sliding into the building. Yes sir you did the damn thing.super great job. Getting ready to start the same thing on my first 2nd gen I just got.
Thank you! Good luck with your project!
@@9NailzGarage thanks for that
Looking good boss! Come along ways from working on bikes and r/c cars!
Thanks! Haha yea same stuff just bigger!
Garage looks like Dexter's kill room
Dexter was very organized, so I’ll take that as a compliment.
Yea looks good. I too am trying to color match my bumpers I have same truck. Mine is black perl and I badged took off all crome handles grill head lights tail lights running boards everything. Sitting on 20×10s -24 offset 33 inch venom power at with 1.5 spacers. 2.5 inch level kit. The whole tru k is murdered out exept for the bumpers it's killing me. Over 20 grand into this truck and tired of spending money but it needs done
Sounds like a nice build! Color match would be the final touch!
@@9NailzGarageso instead of painting front crime I bought the plastic sport bumper that fits right over the old one. Looks better and paint won’t chip. My rear bumper has chipped since and I’m about to just buy a stock black one for $240 on American trucks
Your welding would make a great stand alone vid....
Thanks! I was thinking about making another one with just that!
Yo!!!! I NEED to know where you got that grille and insert setup. Please! I’m doing the 06-08 grille on my 03 and every grille I’ve found was chrome and I don’t wanna go they the hassle of dechroming it. Anyways, great work bud! You have a new subscriber!!!
I got them on Amazon, the links are below. Thanks for watching!

Looks awesome. I'll be doing the same
Thanks!
How did you get the color to match so well? I just did some fender flares I paint matched but it's off just a bit
How does the bumper cover mount to the original bumper?
You gotta color match the mirrors
Think that bumper cover would slide over my 03?
If you got the year specific 03-05 bumper cover i think it’d fit about the same
Thanks for this video!
Do any front bumper covers fit Over the chrome factory slt bumper?
No problem, glad to help! Yes they will fit over the chrome SLT bumper. If it’s a Laramie cover with the chrome insert you may need to drill some holes to make the clips on the back of the insert fit. Also you will need to drill two holes on the rear of the chrome bumper and place a nut clip on it, you’ll see what I mean when you do it. Good luck with your project!
@@9NailzGarage what about the lower lip? Will the one on my chrome one fit on the sport cover or would I need to buy too?
@@bernardorodriguez7871 no it doesn’t fit, there’s a special one for the sport/Laramie bumper, last time I looked it up it was around $200 so I just left it, looks fine without it.
Believe it or not, if you take the lower plastic trim of the slt bumper, flip it upside down, massage it with a heat gun, you can get it to fit up against the Laramie bumper. I added one to the bottom of my 06 dually and a set of challenger splitter guards just for laughs.
I’m really glad to see this comment and answer. That’s the exact answer I was looking for in watching this video.
So the bumper cover fit over that stock style bumper just fine with no issues?
Sure does, you’ll need to drill two holes in the back side of the chrome bumper by the tires you’ll see what I mean when you do it. Otherwise it fits great once adjusted.
see im just cheap and ripped the chrome wrap off my grill and used plasti dip to paint it
Nothing wrong with that, everyone has their own taste
Do u happen to have the link for the grille inserts the chrome ones?
Here’s the link from Amazon: SpeedForm Redrock Replacement Insert Compatible with Factory Grille Housing; Chrome Compatible with 06-08 RAM 1500 www.amazon.com/dp/B08D9MZ86R/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_PHP9S15YS90XT5NVFJGR
Thank you!!!
Very nice
Thanks!
Wish it was this cheap for a 4th gen.
Haha me too, I just picked up a 2018 3500
Not digging chrome grille inserts, you just need to paint mirror caps and handles white as well
How well did the grill fit? Did it hold up well?
Grill fit perfectly, held up great for the few months I owned it
Wait you dont have to take off the bumper?
The plastic pad comes off then the new cover goes over the entire chrome bar
Is there any reason why you wouldn't be able to do this to your stock ones? Thinking about doing just that
Can't paint chrome
@@eathans_small_engines8665 degreaser removes chrome plating
wow dude this turned out awesome I need to do the same exact thing you did thanks for the inspiration If i do it I will buy the stuff throught ur link hope you get a kickback for the referral link
No kickback here, I wish! Glad you enjoyed it though!
What grit paper you using on your pad sander
I used a bunch of different types, for the filler I started with 80 then 120 then 220, then 400, then paint. Very important not to skip steps. Here’s a few things from Amazon that I used.

@@9NailzGarage thank you so much, Have a 07 ram 2500 I just bought and am considering color matching grill and middle bumper then chrome on lower. Like on a 05 ram. You did a great job and I think I could do a a descent job. Appreciate your reply. Thank you
@@markburg3323 glad to help! Thank you! This video might be helpful too. ruclips.net/video/U61x_mUtGgM/видео.html
Good luck with your project
I love how your generation refers to a floppy piece of plastic as "a bumper"
Kinda like a paddle shifter is a manual transmission.
No son.
A bumper is steel.
Usually chrome.
And you can use it to push things, open gates, pull your friends out of the mud ect.
And by the way , a manual transmission has a clutch pedal.
Thanks for the input, my bad it’s a “bumper cover”. Also thanks for sharing your knowledge of manual transmissions, as if I didn’t know after driving my T56 fitted Dodge Viper, my G56 Cummins or my 6 speed gti.
@@9NailzGarage YoUr GeNeRaTiOn 🙄
There's a metal bumper behind the plastic
a guy going by on a horse will never see it
I don’t see the connection here?
