Next i'll be looking into cleared headlights, LEDs in the reverse lights and license plate lights, and colormatching the bowtie
 
Really a good looking truck. So clean. Only things I would do is color match front bumper, clear heads and do rear fender liners. Other that that she's perfect!
 
Def. a good daily driver! Basically what I want in a crew cab/daily once I get a job and can make the RCSB a toy. Ever thought of color matching the front like Sam's old truck? Loved how he did the black valance red with a black center, etc.

Oh, and judging by the pictures, def need to clear my schedule next year and check out the ladies at the Carolina cup :rofl:

This and I personally would put the stock blocks back in and leave front bumper chrome, just a bit to much lean for me. Other than those small details

Thanks man, all those are on the list. Colormatched HD grill and then doing my valence the way sam did his. Along with that colormatching the rear bumpers

Dat gf & trok :somuchwin:

aww yeah :boobs:

Dat red troka :hng:

IMO thanks edduh

Gf hawt :imo:

Truck is clean and simple, looks good dude.

Thanks brotha

truck looks good man, but don't colourmatch the bowtie IMO

Thanks for the input man, if I end up getting a CM HD grille then the bowtie would be billet

How'd you do the steering wheel emblem?

Thanks Chris, It's a great DD height for me right now. And yeah I have, when I allocate the $$ to colormatching i'll be doing something like his.

And yes you do lol it's an experience like no other

Front bumper chrome? It's CM now

and the lean isnt usually that extreme, it was just on a hill in those last pics
 
Just noticed it was factory color matched, I just think the chrome bumper would look good with the grille, rear bumper and wheels. As for the lean I don't drive it so don't take it the wrong way I'm just not a huge fan of more than an 1-1.5" on a leveled truck, just kind of my thing
