HAHA. your truck pic is what made me get them. so many people at work said that it sets the look of the truck off, like its a total different truck. it makes my black and white theme look good. IMO. about the bed stickers, i'll have to see what the one's i bought looks like.

Looks good! I'd get some lowering shackles and some new rims/tires.

I love the hood stripe. very classy.

x2 the wheels are too small for the look. But i vote on keeping stickers - they add character.

think about buying a tonnau cover for the bed. I would suggest a black leather roll up one. they arent very expensive and they look very nice.

It would help make the rear end of the truck look "fuller" and balance the front out a little since you have the big lower valance.

very easy to install and also roll up if you need to put anything back there.

I was looking into those before, but I stumbled on a super duper deal on the rims I currently have, black 22"x9.5" Boss 313's with 305/40-22 Yokohama parada spec-x tires.

i'm not big on the bigger rims. i'm looking at 17" with low profile tires with a 2/4 drop. trying to keep the stance i have now. what should i go with?

10-4 i did white on a previous car. buy a good quality paint and do at least 3 good coats and it will last and surprisingly, it cleans very easy.

i was unsure about the stripes when i first put them on, but my dad recommended i leave them on for a week or two. and sure enough, after a few days i loved them. they really finish off the truck.

Man, those will look tiny! If you want small go with a 20" wheel at the least.

Man, that's a question for Wandell. Try making a thread about your wheel and tire aspirations in the wheels section.
