tie a string to ur hood latch and put it through some gromits up into ur dash and have a pullstring hood opener. you think im kidding? watch me do it son. i dont PLAY

 

id rather cut the very top 1 or 2 bars 2inches short in the top right corner of the midsection then have the whole thing powdercoated

 

Well I geuss if you powdercoat it black...it would be alright... but I sill like the Speed grille...maybe you could get rid of the latch... so all you need to do is press the release in the cab.

 

Nice looking rig. I take it you ordered the R/Tand the Dakota emblems online somewhere.

 

dang stone, their right, u have disappeared....i never realized it till now...anyway stone, hope all is well

 

thanks DakotaStone , the front emblem is for the 2006 daytona charger , the rear emblem is the rear emblem for a 2006 charger r/t . the dakota emblem is factory . when i got the truck this far i wanted a theme for it and i loved the 2 gen dakota's. i hope you guys think my truck is worthy of the r/t emblems ?i hope people don't think it's cheesy.
i have got the lowering shackles to level it out , but as soon as lowering parts come out i want to bring it down maybe a couple of inches.for more of a sporty look .

post didnt work scottscan

 

I think your truck will look sweet when it lowered.


I like the old ford in the reflection of your truck

 

its most definitely a very nice truck, very clean and well taken care of....looks great...you did do a good job with the r/t on the grill and looks good on the back....as for cheesy, no....poserish, kinda ya....we know it isnt an r/t, but others might not.....i really hate seeing people slapping an aftermarket hood on their lt1 v6 firebird, slapping on firehawk badges and firehawk wheels and intake and so on and telling everyone its a firehawk, but then they dont have the rpo code, they have no id # on their dash, their vin doesnt match up yada yada yada....especially at shows....morons.....sorry i got off on a tangent....cheesy, no...poserish...kinda....but that doesnt mean i cant like the truck

its 1 thing to slap on the parts bc u like them, its another to add decals and try to pass it as something it isnt...dont get me wrong, i have nothing against u, and i do love your truck, but do u know what im sayin?

 

Yeah I know what ur sayin Night Runner, which I get...and I like the truck... I was thinkin about puttin on the R/T badges but I didn't want to for that reason... But, I do want to put on an SRT-6 badge, because I love the SRTs and I wish they made an SRT for the dakota...but they don't so I'll make my own custom SRT hehehe...but I love the decal and I have no intention of passing it off as a Dodge SRT but I do want people to think twice when they look at my Tailgate.
