Default Finally got my toys installed

Well I finally got my lift and mirrors installed. I went with the PA 3" body lift and the ever so popular towing mirrors... I'm looking to get a set of lights to mount behind the grill as well as mounting my fender flares this weekend. Curious what you guys think. I'm debating paintimg the flares white to match the truck or just leaviing them black...?

Pic below is just after the lift was installed, with factory 20's and 33" Cooper Zeon Ltz...

I was thinking that too, plus when the Ltz's wear out I want to get a set of Xd Monsters so i think the black would go well together...but that will be a while because I just got them in March and i jsut caant justify throwing them away with soo much life left...

You should go 35s after the ones you have now are gone. 3 inch body and leveling kit are plenty to clear em.

Most bullbars come with mounting hardware. I know at a minimum that my Westin did.

I second this. 33s would look far too small with the leveling kit and a 3in PA kit. IMO.

I got a bull bar from BULLY and it came with mounting hardware. Very easy to install. Does say to remove the skirt or whatever it is on the front bumper before installing so you can trim it but I had trouble getting to a screw that was holding it on so I attempted to put it on over the skirt, it is a tight fit but doesnt bend the skirt a whole lot to make a difference. Does make the truck look a lil meaner.
