Default Need some ideas

Ok, I need some ideas to sexify my truck. Im not really worried about speed, so Im not thinking many more performance parts (I have K&N Intake and Gibson Exhaust). I just want some ideas on what to do to make my truck look a little nicer? for those of you that dont remember, this is my truck:

I think you mean "aftermarket rims"...

Unless you expect him to make his own rims...

Sorry... pet peeve.

x2, bugs me too


and fyi, tint that biznatch. youll be surprised how much tint can change the appearance of a vehicle. great investment bud, go for it. if your afraid of going too dark, get 20% all the way around. i know you already have the stock smoked windows, but get 20% over that, 20 percent up front, and a 5% brow. 20 over stock (which is between 17-18) should come out to just under 10, and fronts will still be 20. youll have great vision at night and it will help out a ton during the day. also, if your afraid of it being illegal, 20% up front is light enough that not even the most dickless cops would write you a ticket for that

For some states the problem isn't when getting pulled over. Here in Maine they test the front windows with a tint meter when you get a vehicle inspection. Anything darker than the legal limit and no sticker for you, it really sucks.
