the whole reason i did this was cause i was gonna install that brush guard but ended up finding out i need to fabricate some brackets.

but anyways i think it gave my truck a whole new look.
it went from a fleet looking truck, to something more personal.

I saw the brush guard and was going to ask. Might want to address the headlights.

The black looks nice all around. I don't think I've ever seen that before on a dodge, but I like it. I think the best part of the pics is your dog.

And I think it's also time to clean those headlights up, too! That'll make your front end look new.
