Default New Mod?

Well I had an AWESOME week in the pro football pool this week! After a poor week #1, I got a share of third place money last week and going into the sunday night game, I hold a two game lead this week, so the worst I can do is a share of first place money.

I HAD a partner who lost faith in me after week one, so now I get to keep it all for myself!

Only lost one game this week, I had Minnesota over San Fransisco, they won, but did not cover the points.

Most of you guys know my truck, I ain't done a mod in over a year. What do y'all suggest now that I should have a "found" $400 to spend on it?

Roll Bar, HIDs, Projectors, Hellas just to name a few mods solely for looks.
What all do you have already modded on the truck?
With that $400, you could pay just a little out of pocket for an inertia motorsports camshaft.

The only problems with adding a body lift, Feej, are that I would have to get 37" tires. Can't afford them right now, but maybe shortly. I've got some business prospects in Ga that look real good right now.
The other issue is that I'll have a problem with the Trans4mer Grill/Brush Guards and winch mount, its bolted to the frame, a body lift would make it sit 3" too low. I could fab up bracket extensions but I'd still have to do some additional cutting.

I thought seriously about Hellas after I put a set on Pyro's truck. But with the winch and all, anywhere I stick them would look too busy I think.

I do have a KRC210 Cam but still don't have tranny support from any tuner maker that would handle the custom tune I need. Maybe I'll just put the $ aside and use it toward the cam job...

That be the price of the cam alone... you need to add about another $600 to get it in and running right, besides dont you already have a KRC cam waiting to be put in hammer?

Or buy the psc1 (????) piggy back tuner and use your SC as the trans support.
