Looking for some opinions!
bighorn i like the hood as is, i wish mine was a functional hood. I just couldn't justify the extra cost when i was doing all my mods as i did most of my mods in 3 month span. I would leave the hood as is. The bull bar i agree that it sits to low. I have the laramie and it's a pain the butt to find one that will work with mine. I happen to find a company that was trying to get rid of their inventory and got a grille gaurd for just under 200. I have a 7ft garage door with a 6" suspension lift on 35's and my truck fits in the garage so you should fit easily with a 2".
Ok I will have to measure how much room I have... What lift did you go with, and how is everything holding up in the front end? I really want to lift this thing, just not to the sky. So any suggestions would be great... I will be eventually getting 35" tires also, however seeing as how I only have like 25000 on the stockers they are like 80% yet.
I have a BDS 6" suspension lift w the leaf upgrade instead of blocks on the back. I am running 35" nitto trail grapplers as we all know tires can vary. I have yet to have a problem with the front end and i have done some heavy off roading. I clear my garage door by about 1/2", trust me the first time i tried it i had multiple people checking as i was backing in.
Well I just measured the top of my truck to door for clearance and I have 9.25" at the point of crowning between the drive way and garage floor. So I should be good with a taller lift. Not sure I want to go with a 6" lift yet though??? I have to think about it, as it is pretty pricey for sure... Does that 6" lift level your truck as well, and by going with 35's that will also raise the truck by some also right?
Luckydt your truck is freggin sweet looking, I really like the color man and all your mods really flow well with that truck.... What projector headlights do you have? PM me some pics of your headlights and side of truck so I can get a better idea of what I am going to want to do next.. Thanks man.

Bighorn im orginally from WI had my lift installed up there on leave from deployment in hartfort at Mooses 4x4. I went with a 6" BDS lift with leaf upgrade instead of blocks on the back and steering stablizer upgrader. all in all installed it was $3,100, but it rides amazing barley feel bumps at all, no steering wobble after hitting a bump that most comlain about. The 35's will lift you another inch roughly. The projectors i got off ebay not sure on the name brand, but can be found for $220 for the set. thanks for the comments and check your PM!
I think the hood is a no go!! it would be better served at my place with a brillant black pearl paint job on it. Yep thats all i see lol, naw it looks good dude. good luck with the mods.
hard to tell if those "fangs" would look good or not. They may be a little too "pointy" You could make some out of electrical tape first to see if you like the look, or if you could find some other black tape.
Bull bar looks tough, I would keep it and put two more Hellas on it
I also like your creeper with the flames on it, you should put the same flames on the side of your truck

I don't like the Bull Bar with the Chrome Grill. If the grill were colored like the Sport packages it would look good (which sucks cause I wanted the bull bar). I can't see your pics (I'm at work). Basic thoughts on RAMs are Level it 2", slap 35's on it (yes they will) and if you get the Outline of the grill painted...add the bull bar.
