Default New Mods, last pics before winter wheels go on...

Well, it's about that time...hoping to swap the winter meats on tomorrow Figured I'd snap off a few shots of some of the latest appearance mods first. I received and installed my clear corners last week...great mod for 40 bucks I also cleaned up a few areas with some pieces of ABS plastic that I bought off of ebay...made a block-off for the driver's side tow hook hole in the lower valance (Volant ram air is in the passenger's side hole, tow hooks were removed this past summer). Also made a panel for the center console that houses the Basslink level control, and a couple of switches that may be used in the future...for now they just light up at night and look cool

Enjoy!

Lights on:


Threw in a shot of my GenTek rear view mirror...auto dimming with outside temp and compass...39* today, it's like a heat wave after yesterday (it was 18* when I left for work):

Truck looks good, as always. I like the clear corners. I'm glad you're removing those Joe Gibbs wheels. Everytime I see your truck with those wheels, I get the urge to spend money on a set of Joe Gibbs. Post some pics of your truck in winter mode when you're done.
