They look awesome, you'd love them.. I did the plasti dip on the tailgate just before the install. I kinda wish I would have at least got a pic with out the tailgate balcked out. I might pull it off for a little while. Still dont know if im fully into this look.

And you still got me on that roll pan man, that thing looks sick. But we talked about the tow hitch. I dont want it to look funny hangin out there with a roll pan.

Thanks, I like them however with the 33"s I do rub front and rear. I still have to trim them up. Honestly the only thing I dont like about them. Is the size I believe takes away from the size of the tire. To me the tires and lift looked much bigger with out them. Maybe its just me.

what's up guys, i'm new to the forum and this is my first post so bear with me. I bought a 2005 Dakota a few months ago and i love it so far. Its pretty stock as of now but i have a lot of plans for it. It does have a K&N intake and a Heartthrob dual exhaust on it. Inside its got a pioneer head unit. The rims are the stock one but i painted them black, they aren't perfect but they will do until i can afford some new rims and tires. Next up are some new tail and headlights and a new grill, enjoy.

Love the red, and looks good.
Not to many tails out there, there is a Stock looking set with LEDs I think those would be great.
For headlights, Id say get OEM Night Runner black ones, or if your getting HID the projector Style ones.
Same goes for Grilles, Youd be better to Color Match yours and do the "gutter guard" mod. The only aftermarket grille is a Bentley style one that a fair amount of people had the paint chip, like me.


Personally I would Color Match your grille, or Black, get Night Runner (black) headlights, and Paint the gray plastic on the bumper black aswell. Then get either Solid black rims, or ones with chrome accents to match the chrome rear bumper some.

Thanks for the reply. The tails i'm looking at are made by IPCW, they are LEDs so i think they're the same ones you were talking about. For head lights i was thinking of the OEM ones too. I like the look of the stock headlights but being black would match my truck a lot better. The grill is the only thing that i'm still pretty clueless on lol i would prefer it to be black but i have no idea what manufactures to look at so ill have to research that a bit more. thanks for the input
