Message: Just curious if anyone has pics of an all white dak ...looking into replacing my already degrading black bumper w/ a white one. In theory i think having all white w/ a black grilleand dark tint would look slick, or am i wrong? Thanks!

Message: Mark,
I have a white 2000 regular cab Dakota Sport with a 3.9L V-6 and a 5-speed manual transmission. I thought the all-white look would be good too. So, eight months after I bought it, I took it to my uncle's body shop and we took off the door handles, bumpers, and grille and painted them all white. Also, we took off all the emblems. I guess I'm a bit biassed, but I think it really looks good for a Dakota. It really stands out from stock trucks.
In addition to the custom paint, I've also lowered the truck 2 inches and got the windows slightly tinted. Pictures of it would give you a good idea of exactly how this looks. It's all clean right now and I have a digital camera. I would be happy to send you some pictures if you could give me your email address. Just reply to this message and I'll check it tomorrow.

Message: Here's some more pictures posted on this forum. This guy did his a little different than me. He left his door handles and grille factory black plastic. You can check these out to compare a slightly different approach.

Message: Didn't get the pictures that you sent, so yah try it again when you get a chance. And thanks for the link to that other set of pics. Kinda crazy but 3 days after I started looking into replacing the bumper and all that, a 2005 civic decided to try and turn across me when I was roughly 30ft away @ 30mph. Needless to say his car would have been written off as totalled had it not been a 2005, and my truck is currently in the shop undergoing $4000 worth of repair. Too bad for him I guess, and I get my brand new all white front... I'd like to see your pics to see the door handle look tho =/
Thanks, Mark
