    I think most folks have painted the tow hooks that came equipped on their truck. Do you not have tow hooks? If not, I would be looking for a salvage yard that can provide them and then paint them.

    Send me $100.00, I'll get the set of tow hooks & bolts from @Tundra234, I'll paint them for you, mail them to you, then split the $100.00 with George. :notsure: Come on, man; painting black tow hooks red wouldn't take but a few minutes and is easy.

    You can buy mine, a powder coating machine from harbor freight and a toaster oven from Walmart. Be into it for like $200 and have beautiful red row hooks.

    that gives me an idea :monocle:

    Some folks just don't/can't/won't. Worked with a guy who seemed offended when I asked him why he didn't change his own oil after I heard him complain about the shop scratching his car or some shit...his response: "I don't do that my time is money".

    :rofl:

    I’ve actually debated posting my to-do list on my build thread so people can keep me honest. In life I’ve always been a starter, not so much a finisher. Would be nice to flip it around if possible!
