Very clean job. I'll also comment on the fact that it looks as though you had the bug deflector painted with the stripes to match. Definitely an A+ on the attention to details.
 






thanks all-Black's fairly blushing from the attention! Actually, those stripes on the bugflector (and on the roof) are color matched vinyl, put on by yours truly. I've tried 3 times now to get them positioned just right on the rear deflector, but every time gets messed up. That's stuff ain't cheap, either!! Oh, well, 4th try's the charm.
If anyone wants to get stripes, my advice (and comment) is: Make ABSOLUTELY SURE that whoever paints them on puts a clearcoat over the paint AND the stripe-the ******** who did mine 'neglected' to clearcoat it, ( nd I paid $950 for the paint, labor, and installation of the moonvisor!!)and it looks like vinyl up close...Also, that's the newer lighted Moonvisor-make sure you have a professional do it, because the same dick who did the stripes mucked it up and it cost me another $120 to get it fixed by someone who knew what they were doing.
Comment; The stripes kick @$$ from the front, but no one even gives you a second glance from the side. Which really isn't so bad for stoplight challenges.....
 






Nice truck.. (Looks right at home in the photo location to) :)
 






Nice ride, looks very clean/well done.

I'm curious, I have a '00 and did the LUND Lunar Visor also, but the shop that mounted it ended up having to modify the brackets in order to get it to mount at all and LUND was of zero help with suggestions/explanations for why it wouldn't fit properly. You run into any mounting problems with yours?
 






The buttnut who painted my X also painted and 'tried' to install the visor-he claimed to have followed the directions exactly, by drilling the holes in the doorjamb to the specs in the directions, but my doors wouldn't close all the way without this horrible clang, and I could feel the wind being redirected through the cracks in the doors-disconcerting to say the least. The guy wouldn't fix it (he secretly didn't know how, methinks), so I took it back to the Custom Shop, a local accesories dealer who I originally bought it from , and they took it off and realigned it, making sure to put the sticky part in the center on first, before securing it to the doorjambs. I had called Lund and complained before taking it back to the shop, and they sent me a whole new mounting package for free, within a week.
I would take it to a custom 4x4 shop and have them check it out, if you haven't already!
