Default need help with a few mods on a '08

I have a '08 qc, and I want to do something to it, to make it mine, and not everyone elses...lol.

I was looking at Ebay, to get an idea of what mods are out there, they have a little of everything. I don't know of any sites that sell parts for a '08 Ram, I have just had it a month.

I want headlights, black, far as I know, they make 2 styles, 1 with the headlights/turns in the stock location, and the 2nd they are a little different, and on Ebay they run right at $200 with shipping added in. Next mod, I want to lower it, not to drag everything, but to sit at a good level drop with my stock 20's, and tires, I'm guessing 2in is about it, in front, because the tires are 32.7in tall, pretty huge for a 2wd...lol. 3rd is a spray iner, Rhino, I heard is crappy, and $350 in town. Proliner is $425 in town, the town is 35miles, on both of thoughs. I heard Line-X is the way to go, its $395, but its about 85 miles from me. Is it worth the drive? Also, they are all under the rail, but now I'm thinking of going over the rail, a bit more, but I haven't seen any pics on how it looks. Under the rail, may be a little cleaner, but I want a tool box, and it may be better. 4th is tail lights, I think 02-05 are the same, and should fit, am I right? Where can I see what hoods are out there for my Ram? Does 02-05 fit?

If anyone knows of a good place to buy these parts, and whats best as far as liner, let me know.

I went with Line-X on mine because its close and they do great work. If your getting a tool box I would go with an over the rail type. As far as headlights go the light output is different with projector style lights. Tail lights you can put 02-05 lights on but you will have to rewire them because the 07-08 have one bulb for the parking lights and directionals and the 02-06 have two. Hood is the same on 02-08. Alot of good stuff on www.moesperformance.com and www.airram.com

I saw a few pics, unfortantly I was on crappy dail-up, but now I'm not, so I can look at your pics. I didn't see a pic that showed much of the "over the rail" part. I liked it though, but its sooo far from me, but considering.


Thanks RaiderJay6 I'll look on the sites.

Line-X is worth the drive, I drove by about 3 Rhino dealers to get it done about 40 miles away. I've seen others and they look like bad, the Line-X is top quality and every Line-X dealer is always much more knowledgable than the Rhino guys I talked too...
