I usually hate the look of big fender flares but somehow your truck can pull them off.

Can you post up the "before" pics for comparative purposes? Nice work.

Eta: what are the particulars on your truck?

Looks good, not a huge fan of the pocket flares but i'll hate them on any truck so don't take offense.

Have you considered PTM door handles and mirror caps?



edit: i do like your tails, and i usually hate tinted tails

No offense taken. People either love or hate them. I thought about PTM everything but I'm really liking the "tough" look the black contrast gives.

I think with the -12 offset, your tires stick out enough, that it works with those flares very nice, and i a gree, leave em black nice contrast now.

with the 6" & 35, is it a dog now, or do did you regear


Truck looks real good

Thanks!

With the 3:73's, it's not too bad. It wasn't a speed demon in the first place lol.

I'd eventually like to step up to 37's and 4:56 gears.

would look sick with 37's, the 4:56 would be a good choice. I had those gears with 36" super swampers on my older F250 and it was fine.

and Yes, trucks are not meant to be speed demons anyway..lol


good luck down the road!
