The thing with the running boards is you can just put them back on if you dont like the way they look off...Theyre just held in with a few bolts! But i dont know your situation with the lights and wiring so it may be more complicated

Best scenario would be you relocate the lights to somehow fit flush with the side of the truck!
If you could figure that out it would be pretty sweet looking!

Yea i see that now...My best guess would be because i have the eddie bauer with the air ride, the bags were just deflated a little bit so the whole truck was sitting lower

Hmmmm future plans...firstly would be to maybe get the bumpers powder coated black (need to get a photoshop guy to see what it would look like w/ all the gold on it right now black). I really want to lift it but having it be the eddie bauer with the air ride that severly limits my options. If you wanted to hear my LONG term goal i think that would take a whole new thread though

very clean expy. amazing what a set of rims and tires, and lightning heads and corners does for a truck. Also, the lights behind the grill are awesome. how much did those run you?

And for the lights behind the grill they are KC Daylighters and i believe they were around 100 each...I just picked em up at the local autozone though which in my mind overprices everything so im sure you can find them for cheaper online
