I did crop and lighten things a little in photoshop. Other than that nothing is photoshopped. What is it that looks photoshopped?

On a side note..... just my luck to enter in the same month as an XJ with a nice stroker. Very nice rig LEAD_NOT_FOLLOW.

The second pic just looked so different from the first because it was so much lighter it almost looked like a painting. I figured maybe the fenders were colored red along with the bumper and rocker area black. But if those are actually those colors and you just lightened things....very nice

I'll post up the original tonite, unmolested (except sized down). Just so there isn't any controversy. My rig definately has a red bumper, red bushwackers, and black bed liner on the rockers. I am not that good with photoshop.

Wow, very tough decision, Lead not follow got it. All of em' are very nice but that is one stout rig. keep up the good work.

I hope one day I can build a rig anything like any one of these. Just got a job, so I am gonna start with a BB in the very near future.

Your rig looks awesome. Now I remember seeing this photo before. I think it threw me off with the first one not having the color difference and the second did.

Either way it looks great and I was not trying to start controversy.
