nice find. i like painting the grille idea, but maybe that dark blue instead of black. and if you got a lifted 4x4 already, drop this one. thats my plan eventually to have one of each.

2.hid kit
3.clear corners.
I know it's not a lot but its the first step.

and to be honest i know nothing about 180 thermastat or the clutch fan or sonnax for that matter..

i plan on CAI and the throttle body in the near future.

bpark i do agree. i love the QC and i love the way they looked lifted. i plan on another body lift by end of april.

well today didn't go as planned at all.. i had that pre cut tint from my extended cab and didnt realize the front windows are different then 04 QC as well as the back back window.. so i am just gonna order off ebay another set of precut tint. and didn't have enough time for the hid kit because i got called into work so all i did was clear corners... but still i think it looks good...

thats a pretty truck..i agree with the color matching the front grille the blue color, along with the door handles. i like that 2 tone looks alot better up close.

no i measured them both dude. if you look in the back ground i still have my purple 99, the windo is like 2 inches longer but like an inch shorter.. and the back is different because it has a different latch for the sliding window.. the 99 has a huge latch and the 04 has a small one so there is a big gap which would show from the outside..
