Default Finally got some pics. Color matching, grille, & cleared lights

So I finally got the truck clean enough to be pt worthy. I washed and waxed her this weekend. I haven't put pics up since I matched the door handles, put the grille on, or with the tonneau cover & cleared headlights. I also took the Z71 stickers off. It looks dumb now I think, but when I get bigger tires on it will start to come together.

I also cut my exhaust tip off "I know it looks ghetto" but I was wondering what yall thought of as far as tips go. I was thinking something like the dual outlet from SLP. I am going to do headers and ORY, but for the time being i need something just for looks.

I am re painting my bumper cap so it is not all the way popped in, I know it is uneven in the pics. Sorry for that.

Edit: A special thanks to Mike "Laynlow77" for clearing my lights for me. Pleasure doing business with you and they turned out great.

Lastly, I need help picking out a wheel/tire combo. I am up for anything, but here are a few options I was thinking.

1. Stock wheels with 295/75 BFG A/Ts

2. 20" Boss 330s with either Nittos or BFGs. I'm looking at houses so I can't be spending everything on wheels and tires but I need something soon.

Let me know what yall think.










What tip should I run?

I just cut the exhaust off right behind the axle to hide it, but from behind it looks kind of ghetto so I need something on there to clean it up until I put full exhaust on it.

That tire combo is kind of what I'm leaning towards.

Lookin good. I vote for either an SLP or Corsa dual swept tip for the exhaust tip.

IF wheels and tires, try to get a nice set of factory GM TX edition 20" wheels with a set of Cooper Zeon LTZ 275-60-20's
Although stock 17's with 295's would be nice also.

Wow, if drove past your truck i'd do a double take!

Really turned out nice, clean and uncluttered. Very nice!

Love the headlights too, was it hard to clear them, i hear some rough stories out there but want to do mine on my Dmax.

Love the stockers, but if budget allows i'd do a 285 on some polished 5 or 6 spoke wheels.
