Nice broad question ^_^ look around see what others have done, or more specific as performance ? mileage ? off-roading ? budget . . .

A little clue O_o ? :P

ok, well ive already got the k&n and i more recently had dual flowmasters put on with pipes run out the side...
need ideas for visual mods
maybe a lift, nothing crazy, just like a 3" body lift
really interested on how people get the hella lights and installed behind the grille...

its a 2wd but i traded even a plane grey alloy wheel with brand new streets for these chrome 20s with brand new nitto mudd grapplers
thats an older pic, i already put a 2 or 2.5 level on the front but a body lift would be nice...
however whatever i do i have to be sure of, im a student so money isnt unlimited...

Welcome to the DF!

You should black out the wheels & step bars.

Welcome to the forum. There might be a DIY around here somewhere on how to mount the hella's behind the grill. It is a pretty simple install.
