Neighbor said he'll be home in about an hour so I'll post up the price estimate and what he says.

I definitely recommend debadging to go along with all of this. I agree that the mirrors might not match...I've seen a red Ram in my area with painted mirrors that are slightly off color and it looks horrible.

Count me as another vote for the debadge. It just cleans up the look of the truck IMO.

I think it would look better.. I would also debadge, loose the chrome handles and pick out some nice rim's and it would look killer!!

He said about 700. I'm beginning to re-think this. I may just take off the side mirror-covers and put the rain guards on and leave it at that.

It's a lot of dough for a college kid to drop, especially because I'm not working since I'm in school right now. I still need to buy tires too and put that cutout on too.

Is that just for the parts you listed earlier? Have you thought about painting the parts yourself? You can buy the color match paint on-line or at the dealer and save yourself a ton of cash.
