please don't lower a 4x4. 4x4 goes up and 4x2 goes down. But like they said above, it's your truck, make it a reflection of you. As long as YOU can look at it in a parking lot and smile, you are golden

I have no intentions of lowering or lifting it, only changing the rake to a more aggressive stance.

Here's where it sits right now for visual reference. Im on the fence about de-badging it, I really don't want to run into any paint issues. Also, I am for sure painting the wheels black.

Nah it's brackets for a brush guard. I've tried getting them off twice, but the bolts are seized and are about a 1/2" thick. Im going to just cut them off eventually.

I took the chrome trim off around the wheel well and it looks better. Still on the fence about the other moldings.

another simple thing you can do for free is get rid of the white writing on the tires.... its my pet peeve lol i HATE IT!!! i think a straight black tire makes the truck sooooo much cleaner an not cheesey! just flip those tires lol andd the side moldings as well. even if you dont wanna take the side moldings off, the chorme above the wheel well molding looks soo much nicer off. its just 4 screws

If you read my post one above yours, I already removed the chrome trim around the wheel well.

And I like the white lettering. I can't explain why, I guess because it's just not as boring as all black, and its not like I have some nice wheels to showcase either.

Well I think I am going to paint the wheels on Thursday and Friday. Going with black. Just painted the wiper arms today because the paint was basically gone.

turn the white letters in. Also detail your truck. it looks swirled up. Get some poor boys SSR and then wax it. will make a big difference.

The paint isn't worth detailing. Im just going to let it go, then next summer or something I'll repaint the entire thing. There is rust around every door handle, by the headlights, wheel wells, barn doors, and serious peeling on the bottom of the doors and quarter panels.
