Default Want it to look mean

I have a 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 quad cab 4x2. I love my truck but I want it to look mean. Right now it is pretty much stock. I was wondering if anyone here has gotten a body kit put on there Ram and if so how does it look?
Thanks

I plan on putting the SRT-10 bumper on mine sometime in the future. I'm also considering a new ram air hood with 2 scoops. A bull bar is a nice option also. There are a lot of aftermarket grilles to replace the factory one. eBay has trememdous buys on billet and stainless steel grilles. Putco offers some grilles with designs as opposed to standard bars. One of my favorites is the grille and shell package that turns the Ram's 4 panel grille into a large single front piece. Don't forget about cab roof lights, too.

Thanks Whitelight.
Bullbars are a badass look for the dodge. i got my billet grill off ebay for $60, wanted to replace the shell for one big grill but didnt have 350 at the time[&o]. now that i have a job im savin up for the ram sport bumper and the clear roof clearance lights. found them on ebay of course. yellow lights would look bad on my white.[sm=exactly.gif]

i have this bumper on my truck now , and besides the srt-10 wheels , it was the best thing i did to change the apperance of my truck. i have a billet grill ( top and bottom pieces ) and when i put the bumper on i opted to keep the bottom piece in , even better decision that the actual bumper itself.

The hood is a must. Plus change the stock grill to an open mouth like I did. Since your truck is not a 4x4 I wouldn't suggest the 9 1/2" off road lights.
