All cleaned up for now...

Finally, it's all cleaned up, but it probably won't last long

Thanks and yes, it's an Autoskin from AVS. The headlight guards are also from AVS and attach with velcro like fasteners.

They give the HD light look but at a fraction of the price. Just about everyone likes the Autoskin, but the reason I bought it was to protect the leading edge of the hood. I noticed that the blunt area on either side of the grill started collecting rock chips and this easily fixed that problem. I even had a branch fall on the front of the truck in a storm and the only thing that took a hit (very lucky) was that Autoskin. I simply replaced it and it was good as new. You can get them at Pep Boys once in a while hidden in all of that plastic stick on chrome crap.

I'm liking those fender flares. Almost didn't notice them at first (too distracted by those tail lights..)

Man, you guys are tough around here. The tails are LEDs and are extremely bright and actually match the truck color fairly closely. They look and work factory, but I'm probably going to go with HD tails for a darker look.

Did a lot of research to find flares that weren't too large or too small.

Tell me about it, just washed mine too.

Truck looks great by the way.

These guys are known to be picky at times.

What kind of fender flares are you running? Flat black?

I see that you have a CG sticker on your windshield. I am stationed at MSST Galveston, where are you at?

cgocifer ... I'm not really hot over the '10s yet myself ...
... but that looks good!

The heads and tails look great as is as they give some contrast. Also like leaving emblems bright.

Thanks for the positive comments!

[quote]What kind of fender flares are you running? Flat black?[quote/]

I found them at heavydutytrucks on ebay. They come in smooth for painting and textured which is what I'm running. They're ABS and good quality. They're perfect for those who don't want anything too ridiculous but need more coverage than OEM flares. $220 bucks for all four. Super easy installation. Took about 20 minutes tops.

Yes, they are! They're pretty awesome, but the E-rating makes them hard as rocks! Not too noisy considering the aggressive tread!
