the valance isnt really an option b/c i already got the clear fogs with hid's and have it painted so id be throwing money away and the mirrors look good but i tow a double trailer with jet ski's in the summer so i actually would like bigger mirrors i was thinking something to improve mpg or maybe a back up camera maybe a new grille idk did you get your guages yet i wanna see those installed maybe ill get a set of those

I think they are worth the money i paid 179 for mine at autozone and looks real good and there is ALOT better throttle response then what i had with the stock intake. Go for it you will be happy guaranteed

I still haven't gotten the gauges and am still impatiently waiting for them. Maybe they will be waiting for me when i get home tomorrow or tuesday. But definitely go for the CAI.
