that looks good, your taillights look really good, did you do them yourself? and are you going to get overlays
and inlays?

I also think it would look cleaner if you pulled off that pinstripe

X2 on the inlays

X2 on the pinstripe... It's got to go.

Have you searched around local craigslist or this site and tried to find some FX4 wheels or something like that?

I'm trying to get rid of the bumper, need $$$ I'm gonna buy a Seleen ground kit, with Street Scene roll pan. Tried to find rims, no luck here in Middle Georgia for under $1000.
I'm gonna get overlays and inlays soon, just trying to figure out the best color options for it

With new PTM bumpers, wheels, and tires it should really stand out. You're right about the money though, with these trucks it keeps adding up. Oh well...

You know since you've added the wheels and the inlays, they tie the chrome bumpers in. I know that you were planning PTM (that will be cool), but I think that it looks damn good now. What wheels are those? I know that I've seen 'em before, but I can't put my finger on it.
