I voted a little of both, but it all depends on your budget, in all reality, most visual mods are cheaper. I am broke, mom of 2 still recovering physically and financially from a car accident. I was restless and wanted to do something, so I broke down and spent 20-25 bucks to do some accentual mods to my balt. granted it isnt a lot to spend, but I got my materials to do the following-
- Krylon paint and clear coat to get my armrests repainted and I have enough to do my entire dash panels that are silver the same way,
- Black edge trim to do my doors (which are already done) and my trunk lid as well as have enough left over to do my truck when I get her.
- Stuff to debadge my trunk of my car.
- and even eye protection glasses
Safety first LMAO
Like I said, it's not a lot, but some people have already said something about what I have done. But you dont want to get a lot of visuals without changing some things under the hood to keep up with it's image
and that is Cow-Chick's

Shame it's a Cheby, cause I saw them (well pics anyway) and they came out really well. Would have been nice for you to put a few pics up here so others can see what you can do on a really limited budget. Maybe you can put them up in OT or Non-Dodge Member Rides section and link to them...
there are some pics in my album I think... I know I added some and took down one pic

Power & performance is not really a fair vote. Say you put a winch on for the performance IE, can lift your truck off the ground. Is this performance or is it also bling because it does make the truck look better. Shoes are in the same category. I could keep street tires on my trick but I opted for offf road tirs as I take mine off the beaten path on a regular basis. It looks good but it was done for performance.
