mod pics of my 05xlt

hey guys I've been doing some little things to my truck and I havn't posted pics so here she is:





so far the only mods are:
street scene mirrors
HD headlights and taillights
ebay billet grill and 80% tint on the front windows to match the back

I also have the LT handles ready to be painted but I'm debating wheter I want to paint just the buckets and leave the chrome straps or the paint the straps too

Looks good but what is 80% tint? the back windows are like 15ish. The mirrors aren't really my cup of tea but Overall it looks good. You need some rims

Those mirrors look tiny compaired to stock. Have any troubles seeing all the things you could with the stockers?

Front end looks really clean I like it but some rims would definitely set the rest of the truck off nicely.

The mirrors look out of proportion in relation to the rest of the truck. Otherwise, i like the subtle mods.

80% blockage, 20% transmission. for some reasone everyone arond here does it bass ackwards. the mirrors arn't as bad as I thought they would be. the story behind those is theres a narrow road close to my house that has has a blind hill I was coming up one side in my lane. and there was some douche in a f350 duallie coming up the other side down the middle of the road totally over the line I had to nail mi mirror on a mailbox instead of nailing a truck bigger than mine. and I decided to ditch the stockers

my future plans incluse painting the chrome pumpers and adding a HD valance, 22's and a 2/4 drop after I get the LT handles on there

its the ebay grill from foryar. its a good fit and finish but the supplied hardware dosen't last long before rusting. I'm actually debating if I should paint it gloss black instead

Damn -- the lighting makes the truck look orange on my end (?). I wish they offered an orange color from the factory -- I think it would look pretty good on these trucks!

Looks good, what cover is that? Just a tiny cheap suggestion if I may...get some velcro to hold those rear corners down I've got an extang full tilt and the corners riding up drove me nuts. I notice a lot trucks with that and two minutes makes it look much cleaner.
