Its funny actually the guy across the street has the exact same truck as I do. People come to my house and get confused. I guess they will be able to tell them apart now!

so here is a shot showing what I had to trim.



This shot shows my clearance to the frame rail in the front



This one shows how far they stick out.



I was stoked that I could fit my 35 inch spare in the stock location!!



And finally my next mod!!! picked up an FX2 grille for 50 bucks!

Looks great man like the color combo on the truck.

Now you need to paint the handles and fender flares so they dont sand out haha

Nah I like the contrast. I am going to do the flares in the same textured paint I did the bed caps with. The handles and mirrors im going to try and bring back to black. My buddy showed me some stuff called ICE, Im not sure who makes it but I put a little bit on my plastic and it came back to black. Seems to be lasting too.

Oh yeah. if i cant keep them looking decent then ill probably do them black. I need to do the wiper cowl BAD! I was thinking of doing the grille surround too. The FX2 grille i got is dark shadow gray so i want to see how it looks on the front before i do it black though.

Wow, those look great. I've been looking at those exact wheels as well. The offset is perfect imo. They don't stick out too much.

Look's great, those wheels have good specs in order to run those tires without rubbing too bad.
