Either 22's or more rubber on that wheel would fit that wheel well up. I'm not a fan of big gaps like that. Gives me an idea what my truck could look like with 4/6 and 22's now, thanks!

Also, those taillights are pretty sick, reminds me of some dodge I seen with PTM silver taillights.

A candy is a translucent paint like on my show truck the lower half is candy cobalt blue and under that is orion silver. So on a taillight you'd just spray it with the candy without a base coat so your light will still shine through.

Yep, or if you want it more of color matched, mix about 75% clear and 25% your body color and do light coats until it matches

The new rear end looks great. Couple of questions though...

Who makes that roll pan? Did you use a kit to relocate the handle to the inside, if so which one? Do you have a spare tire, if so how is it mounted in the bed?

The roll pan is a street scene steel pan. The relocate kit is from stylin trucks (I don't remember brand). And yes it mounts to the inside. Yes I do have a spare but it just sits in the back. I didn't mount it because it is not my daily driver.

Not hooks. It is the frame. My body guy that did the work didn't have a plasma to cut the bottom of them off.

If I could find another grill on the cheap I might think about it. But I would hate to do that to this grill and then not like it.
