your truck looks way sick as it is. Go with the gears. I would do many things to have a truck looking that nice!

Your truck looks amazing, except just one thing.

It's a completely subjective thing but.......

Those itty-bitty wheels make your truck look like it's stuck in the 70's. Your tires look like huge inner tubes on each corner. Yes I know they're 17's, but with a 37" tire on them they look, well.... There seems to always be good deals on 20" rims on these and other forums.

Again, just my opinion. No offense.

What about retractable running boards? I know they're not really appearance especially when they're tucked under when the doors closed but they're sweet when you open and they swoop down out of no where. Other than that, I was thinking maybe do leather on the inside? Once again, I'm not sure if you would count that as being appearance but eh, just my .02. Your truck came out nice after the bilsteins/AAL/37s btw.

x2 on painting your headlights black. That wouldn't cost you but $10 max and would look much better. It would go well with your tinted tails.
