I like what you did to the hood. Have thought about doing that, and cool to see what it looks like. Looks pretty good. Also kinda liked your wheels with the brushed lookin lips. But I really liked brushed aluminum. Truck looks great bro.

Nothing wrong with barn doors lol! I have them on mine. Only thing that sucks is we can't use any of the good looking LED tails. I wish there was info on doing a conversion.

Truck looks awesome man! Love the color scheme. Any thoughts as to how much you want for your wheels when you upgrade?

I have barn doors as well and I actually prefer them, I find them easier to use and more out of the way. As for LED tails see my thread in the modifications section.

did you have to drop the bumper down or is it in the same spot with the hd grille and bumper cap?
