You can get lug nuts machined in different colors. I have black ones on the way.

I have a all stainless cat back system (duals) by magnaflow. It will run out the passenger side before the rear tire. I'm going to paint it black with engine paint then put it on.

Yea the back is definitely going to be lowered more. I want to lower the front but it snows alot here during winter. I'm putting terra grapplers on my stock 17s and they'll rub if the front is lowered

It was done by a family friend so i got a discount. They painted the front bumper, grill shell, eye lids, and roll pan for $480. Flame red paint is also extremely difficult to get a perfect match, so i bought the actual paint used by dodge. It was $98 a pint.

Got Hemi that is a very nice truck, love the contrast between the shiny and the flat, youve put together a very nice piece of eye kandy for the old and young alike, keep up the killer work my man, very classy, but you knew that already

quick thought, if your gonna paint the exhaust black, you could leave like an 8th inch chrome, or even paint it black, then tape it off leaving an 8th inch exposed to spray red.
