Best eyecatcher

As, you can tell by my sig, you know what I have already. I have a lift/tire/wheel combo on order.

What else can I get for exterior of truck to make it an eye catcher

^^^Although those are nice mods, I would start with some tint on the front side windows, a grill, clear corner lights or new headlights. Just a start.

unless you paint it like pink, just painting the grill is cheap and nice looking way to improve the stock look, and make them stand out from the rest of the trucks. Also Lightning headlights/corners and Lightning LED 3rd brakelight.

Lower,
Tint,
Acetone badges,
paint tailgate handle,
new lower valence
etc

Throw some duals on there too. I just added a pair of 4" tipped Flowmaster SIDO duals today, and they sound and look great. I know a lot of people prefer magnaflow over flowmaster, but I have to tell you I haven't noticed any reduction in power or torque with my duals. If anything the truck feels a little peppier. I also had the windows tinted. But before I did any of that stuff I decided to trick out the inside, because that is where my guests and I ride. I added an eclipse avn (audio video navigation) 5500 unit, two jl 10w3v2's, a sony explod amp, I already had the factory flip down dvd entertainment system, and some other toys that go with the eclipse. Putting tv's in your truck will change the way you look at trips, trust me. Anyways good luck and have fun. Oh by the way I just ordered a vertical grille that will be in later this week. Take care.

not unless you had some motor mods to support the look. Thats like putting a cobra hood on a V6 stang. Sure it could look good, but people with start to think you actually have stuff done to it. I just wouldnt do it, spend your money to lower it, or something that really stands out.

I had a FM 40 series si/do muffler at first. All I did after that was take out the muffler and put a y-pipe in place. So it is basically str8 from cats
