Default Body Kits and Ground Effects

Body Kits and Ground Effects-dakota.jpgI had a 94 Dakota with MKIII ground effects. I had to sell it a couple of years ago and I now have a 1996. It is pretty much stock so I have to do something about that.

I have already removed all of the side mouldings and fender flares. Looks much better. The biggest problem I have is finding a ground effects kit for another extend cab gen 1. Check out my old ride. If you know where to find a Matk III body kit like my old one, PLEASE let me know.

So far I have seen some nice rides. Soon I will have some pics up of mine as I get it done.

If you can help, THANKS!

Unfortunately there is no kit. It is called the Mark III. It was done by a dealership some were. It was not factory but a dealer option. You can check out https://dodgeforum.com/forum/1st-gen...markiii-2.html

On this site is says body kit for dodge. But doesn't necessarily say Dakota. http://www.v-sales.com/pro_ge.htm

Not sure why mind didn't have the back pieces. Mine was a little flatter on the sides also. I am trying to find any old stock or the molds for the original. If I can find a mold, I may have some made to sell. We will see how it works out.

I know some of you have been looking for the ground effects kits for the gen 1 EXTEND CAB Dakotas like I have. I may have found an vendor to make them for me.

If you or someone you know is interested, let me know. I am planning to place an order in a few weeks. The more I can sell, the cheaper we can get them. Send me an email with your contact info and your truck info.

I may also be able to get a complete BODY KIT for the gen 1 extend cab. Picture coming on it as well.

I'll send you a picture of the kits as soon as I have them.
