What do you think?
For a full list of mods, check out my album.
It's a black leather interior if you can't tell, it's always hard to get a good pic in the dark.
The fx4 stickers need to go, and I want to ditch those taillights too. Any other ideas guys?

It looks good, but the taillights and headlights are a real mood killer.

The only thing I like better than the blackout look is the white with black accents look. White mirror caps, niteshaded OEM tails WITHOUT the reverse lens painted, painted heads and I would be one jealous fella (more so than I already am lol).

EDIT:Painted black badges with white or chrome inlays would do it justice also.

Get OEM black headlights, get some stock taillights and paint them black or if you want get a good looking aftermarket set and paint them black, paint the mirror cap white, get the 04 glossy pillars, and it'll look better. Right now it actually looks great, but I think another pair of taillights would look better on there.

Needs black headlights and grille. Would tie the wheels to the rest of the truck.

!IMO! CLean it up a lil...ditch the bullbar(i had one too) loose the rice burner tail lights and change out the headlights. Put a lil lift on it and some beefy tires. Loose the nerf bars, ande chrome handles. And maybe add a saleen grille. I love white trucks blacked out. You have such a clean and awesome looking base to work with!!

I love the input guys, thanks! I couldn't agree more with you about the heads/tails. I don't think the heads are as bad, but I'd much rather get them in black. And like 06xlt4x4 said, it would really tie it together. I'm kind of iffy about the grill, it's really a brushed silver with a white surround. I think I'll leave that til after the tails/heads so decide if it stays or not.

I *just* put on the bull bar and step bars, and yeah they're gonna be staying =P It was looking a little plain before them and that's when I decided to go white/black (got the wheels at the same time) I would however like to get rid of the chrome badges and door handles. That would definitely clean it up a bit. Oh and them stickers of course.

I suppose if I sold off all the extra parts I have this would be easy...

You need to kill off all the chrome to complete the 'storm trooper' (white/black) look..


However, I can say I'm done with mods I'm finally tired of messing with this truck, if it breaks I'll fix it, but nothing new. I'm just going to enjoy driving it for another year or so till I'm confident the SD 6.7L is going to last.

X2 I'm completely done with mine. Except the stereo, I'm always messing with that. Also waiting on the 6.7L

Looks good OP but the taillights need to be changed ASAP.
