Need some opinions......

I'm probably going to keep my truck at least 1 more year and I wanted to add something to the appearance without over doing it. If you guys and gals can give me some feedback that would be great. I can't seem to attach the an image of my truck to this thread, so sorry about the the extra clicks of the mouse to get to my gallery. Okay, so here are the options:

1. Bull Bar either Chrome or Black.
2. Grille Guard Black or Chrome.
3. Leave it the way it is.

Any help would be appreciated

JBMX928....please be nice..

Seeing as how your going for the chrome and black look either color finish would be fine.

But between your two options, I say bull bar.

With those wheels you've got on there a chrome bull bar would look sweet, and it'd be easy to take off if you sold it next year...

The front end is already customized to the max IMO... it will just get cluttered. I need someone to photoshop your hood onto my FX2 cuz that thing is sick!

x2. The front end would be to busy. Since you already are planning on selling it soon, save your money for the next truck.

Truck looks great the way it is, save your money for a 2010 with a 6.2L

Thanks for all the feedback....I value the opinions of the guys on this forum and i appreciate all the responses!! I think you guys are right, there is just enough going on with the front of the truck and i'm better off saving the money and apply it to a 2009 or 2010 whenever the 6.2L is available....

Thanks boys!
