Thanks for your opinions, guys.
Ya know, I was going to take the body cladding off anyway...so i could paint it black first, and I have an extra set of the same Chevy wheels with some worn BFG ATs on them, so i can paint those too. And how much could a black front bumper cover off a cargo van possibly cost at a junkyard?
I could drive it around for a while like that, then if I don't like, take the cladding off and put the old wheels and bumper cover back on...:ylsmoke:
