No luck on Ebay. I was just wondering, does the sport bumpers line up on the regular dodges? Hmm.. I dont even really know the big difference from a regular dodge to a sport anyhow.. ?

You wanted a roll pan?

They've also got bumpers, too.

Are you looking for a roll pan for the rear?

Since you close to me I'm assuming you have heard of Traders Village? They have all types of roll pans out there. Steel or fiberglass with different cutouts if you want. They have EVERYTHING out there. I would check there that way you get to see and hold what you are buying.

The big difference between the two is the front end. The sports have a different front bumper and valance, and despite appearance (they look the same), the sports have quad headlamps, as opposed to duals on a regular Dodge Ram. 9007 and 9004 bulbs, if I recall correctly, where as regular Rams just have 9004 bulbs (not taking fog lights into account). Sports also have extra spots in their bumper for fog lights, as opposed to the inner spots in regular Rams.

The top image is of a normal Dodge Ram 1500, the bottom is of the Sport variety. Figured a side by side would help ya see the difference.

Yours isn't a Sport, yours is just a regular Ram 1500 with a fake plastic bumper.

Just kidding. Thanks for the correction.

Cereal, that is what I want my front end to look like..looks great..

For some reason they used a standard Ram instead of the sport when it is plain to see that the sport would have looked way better
on the package...see my sig link

I am going to get a paintable bumper, grill and bottom valance and have them painted to match and probly throw on the sport mirrors too. Almost forgot a painted rear bump too...

Does any one think it would be too red (I know sounds impossable can never be too red)....
