These sort of "here's my truck" picture/detail threads go in the General Discussion area. I will move it there for you.

Im not a fan of lowered trucks, But your looks amazing with the little bit of chrome, rims.
Like the sub to, I planned to do the same thing, then changed my mind since I dont need it.
I liek the lip, I thought about finding or making one, But then figured the snow would just tear it right off lol

Your truck looks fantastic brother. That lip looks good, do you have a part number for it? Looks great lowered with those wheels. Glad to see more lowered trucks around here.

Looks good, and great job on the sub, Ram emblem included. It seems only blue Daks get lowered around here.

Glad you decided to show it off, welcome aboard.

very nice truck, they're right though, us blue trucks seem to get ground bound. And count me as a second for the part number on that lip. I'd like to see it closer, even though I would probably rip it off pretty quickly. Also, I like the angle you got on your painted headlights....gives it a sort of scowl.
