Hey Guys been a long time since i've posted here. Been wicked busy building the new house and finishing up my degree....but have managed to find some time/cash to put a bull bar and new tailgate spoiler on the truck.

Thanks guys, hopefully I'll be around more now since the house is pretty much done and school is almost wrapped up too.....Bolt I think it would look pretty killer, seen a few with the spoiler and the tonneau.

Import, how was the installation of the tailgate spoiler? Did you have to drill holes? Fasteners? Also, what fender flares are those?

Donkey,

The installation of the spoiler is super easy....if you get the right hardware. Ordered mine from the dealer, never came with hardware and they wouldn't find me any so I had to experiment myself. Used plastic push in rivets...those sucked in cold weather, finally used big sheet metal screws and lock washers. Seems to be workin good so far. Another option I looked at was bigass rivets, just didn't have a rivet gun that cuold shoot big enough rivets otherwise that's probably what I would have done. And yea I did have to drill holes, but only in the front, mine came with factory holes on the back on the tailgate. I have bushwacker flares. I think they look really good and I had them painted to match my truck. The only thing is that they actually cover my TRX sticker in the back a little, but I decided to leave it...
