Thanks go fast... I saw your post couple months ago when I first got my truck and thought... "if I ever get rockstars I'd do the same thing"... SO I DID! 4 coats of flat black spray paint... the shiny parts in the pic are just from the flash. Cut the posts too. Just did it this last weekend and I like it MUCH BETTER!!!
I wanted to mention that I cut the bolts down myself instead of buying new ones. I was going to use my bandsaw, but I don't have a steel blade and didn't want to ruin my high end wood blades. Instead I sandwiched the bolt with 2 small blocks of wood and clamped it down to my workbench and used a hacksaw to cut each bolt. I cut about one inch off of each one. 20 bolts (and an arm workout later) they were were all cut. I ran the ends through my grinder a bit and all of them screwed right on nicely. I have also read that sometimes the plastic hubs come loose and fly off so I used loc-tite on all the bolts when I put them back on.
