$60 and half a days work no one will ever notice

ok, i spent half the day workin on a few things on the EDGE. my wife thinks im nutz cause even after i pointed out the differences, she says no one will notice or care
i have two pics here. the first is from two weeks ago right after i installed my front bumper. the second is from today after i finished my work. there are six(6) differences about the truck between the pics. three are from last weekend:
1) washed the truck
2) polished the wheels
3) installed the rear bumper
name the other three(3) differences; the work i accomplished today



yes they are "minor" changes, but to me it makes a huge difference in the overall look of the truck.

find em!

got one! good eyes. they were grey, i painted em black to kinda hide em a lil bit.

ok, time for some hints since we are hittin kinda close with the t-bar crank guesses. check the gaps. if it was a t-bar crank, the only gap that would change would be the wheel opening...
