I wanted to post some pictures to kind of show you guys what I'm talking about. I posted some before and after photos of when I basically first got the truck, and until now. Although I don't like the look of a "stock" truck, I look back at the pictures of when I first got it when all I did was tint, and it just pops way better. I don't know what it is about the current set-up I have now, but something seems to just be bothering me. I like the smoked headlights and tail lights, but I just think they look kind of dumpy when the truck is all dirty. The chrome headlights seemed to pop the truck a little bit. Anyways, I posted before and after pictures to see what you guys thought of the truck, and what you think it could use.

"In other words Joe....you are crazy." Lol.

I appreciate it Bullet. Do you think putting the "Ram 1500" and Hemi badge would look nice?>

Yes, I agree lol. That's why I think the chrome badges may center things up, and give the rims what John Denver would say, a "rhyme and a reason."

Silver, another interesting idea. And after looking at the page, I really like the Hemi emblem that says 5.7L underneath of it (Part No. 56-8732). What do you think of that emblem?

I definitely am going to buy the hemi 5.7L fender emblems, I really like those A LOT. The only thing I am hesitant on is buying the Ram 1500 emblems again for the door (Part No. 56-8723). Does anybody make those door emblems with the black outlining in them just like the fender well emblems look??

Hi All:
I have an 09 RAM and was going to de-badge it when I steped backed and looked at the hood. It is "faux" hood scoop and thought it would look good with the "HEMI 5.7" badge on the scoop. Took the ones on the body off and found too much hassel to reuse them, but was able to position them to get an idea how they would look on each side of trhe scoop. I liked it so I bought two new ones at $19.00 each and positioned them on each side of the hood.

Now I know it is an 09 but most all recent Rams have the little scoop on the hood so it would work just the same. I will try to post pics if any one is interested.
