i wouldnt do the side of your hood because after the hood ends, where is the black stripe going to go? nowhere really...if u want me to do it, get a side shot of your truck from the front that also includes your hood and i will try to make something work

id use brilliant black metallic...i believe it paint code is PX8

I kind of like the headlights but it's hard to say without seeing them on a truck. Not a big fan of those fuel doors though, I like the simpler ones better that don't have the designs on them. Also fyi they're a bit pricey, the factory price for the Mopar chrome fuel door is $10 less than that one so it would be even cheaper on makeitmopar.com. You know, if you felt like making it yourself, I've seen the same types of mesh they use in the mesh grilles at hardware stores before (not just gutter guard either). It would probably cost you a lot less.

Well I'm not good enough with photoshop to put the headlights on your truck w/o making it look like a total hackjob. But I did find a pic of a 3rd gen with them.



It's on xx1479's truck, got it from his cardomain.

Well the halos could be brighter or they could be dimmer depending how good the projector lenses are. You should ask xx1479 how his are compared to stock.
