Was the bumpers and grill a DIY or did you have someone professional do it? I have an odd obsession with black bumpers, mine are painted the same color as the truck. Also, I seen you said you were using Plasti-Dip, was just curious how well that stuff holds up because I plan to paint my wheels with it

The bumpers and grille were DIY with plasti dip...as for the wheels the plasti dip holds up pretty well as long as you are careful not to scrape it or anything...but if you do scrape them up the plasti dip peels off pretty easy...(as long as you put at least 4 coats on)...at $6 a can you can't really beat it...at some point I will be getting all of it professionally painted...the bumpers paint matched and the grille and wheels are going black...I can post up a full write up on painting the wheels if you'd like as I need to redo them all...I scraped some of the plasti dip off while using my new torque wrench the other day...
Thanks...the waiting around has been hell though...I'm usually an impulse buyer...
and as for the color of the wheels...I've already sprayed the grille and both bumpers black as well as blacking out my dakota emblem...so the theme is black and red...BUT...I may get tired of it, my tastes seem to change occasionally and its all plasti dip so returning to stock is pretty easy! I appreciate the advice though!
also this:
I really like the set up! Truck looking sweet
I found a 20's Ram wheels for sale in my town but they're asking $20,000 pesos ($1500 USD) I think that's a lot of money for a used wheels

That price is probably for wheels with tires included. Just beware that the tires from a Dodge Ram are too big for the Dakota, and will not fit, period.

That's what I did read in this post... The price was for wheels only no tires that's why I did think it was expensive!
I wanna go to the Olive Garden!
Too bad we don't have it here...
So I forgot: did you have a leveling kit?
Nope...no leveling kit and mine did come with stock ram tires...it's a little difficult to find tires that fit without a tleveling kit for a good price...I got lucky and found some used ones on Craigslist for a good price...they are 265/50r20
