His is a homemade one.
Right now I actually haven't modded my truck except putting in my stereo from my old truck. I guess my Hellas also, so $64.95 lol
Soon it will be my tires, and a bull bar. Then maybe some other things.

I haven't gotten an sulky let but hopefully this year. My legs get tired.
I imagine that yours is belt driven.
Does your mower have an backup assist in the trans.? And when you do back up does the sulky get in the way?

Inferno, quit talking about your mower. Start a new thread to talk about that along with the colleges. Let's try to keep this somewhat related to the mods and money we actually have wrapped up in our trucks.

For these vehicles, can we include the actual vehicle itself? Since we technically had to buy that and that was the mod to our empty parking stall. lol
I'm figuring to have around $2k wrapped in my truck soon between everything I'm doing for looks. Hopefully the tires, leveling kit, bull bar, bed stripe, and cab lights.

Ouch! That hurt a lot
but I dont care. I dont need to tow and Im not racing anyone. Street racing is illegal and dangerous in case you havent noticed. Maybe I should tell your mom that youve been driving irresponsibly. Im sure that she wouldnt have bought you that hemi haha

also for the lawnmower guys, im sure they some sort of lawnmower forum where you can talk about all the mods for it.

back to mods
K&N full cold air intake- $100
Flowmaster single in dual out, dumped- $150 (does not sound like a ricer, fyi)
custom grill- $300
rim/tire combo- $? (bought it new from dealer with it already on)
7 color led underbody lights- $270 (installation included)

mods bought but not installed
SRT style hood scoop- $125 (not painted or primed yet)
http://www.flickr.com/photos/3452724...57612722166620
vinyl racing stripes- $60
vinyl sunscreenz decal for windshield- $.25
rear window graphic that covers entire back window- $80

more to come but out of $$$

I still wonder how my truck would look like with one of those but i do know that full replacement grills are the best!
you gotta do what you enjoy doing- if you listen to the haters than you not doing it for yourself.
How was the install?

raminator08 I think that the hood scoop will look GREAT on your truck with that grill. When you do install it put some pics up.
