Arrow Tell me what u think...Wife says whens the modding gonna stop !!!!

Well the wife flew into me the other day asking how much more (messing around) with my truck im gonna do .I do admit i caught mode fever and man does it get expensive......so i was going out for a all black look wich i think i have achevied i was gonna get rims but as i said before in other posts for a nice set of 20's up here will be almost $2,000 and thats not counting tires. So she asked me what do i got left and i was truthfull and told her when tires are gone say 2 years im getting new 18'' rims with 33 and leveling the front with fender flares (extend a fender)with gator domminator 2 steps(black with ss steps).and maybe some headers for xmas OOOOOOo then im complete...Lol i didnt tell her how much that costs...she said i could get them but have to make her a deal no modding for a year ..well since i allready bought these new piaa extreme 510 smr driving lights oh and heres the new blacked out headlights...never again..


...btw if u use masking tape use painters masking tape .I used cheap tape and it actually took off some reflector plastic off my drivers side light not much but i know its there..

do u guys think the the piaa extreme 580 85w bulb create too much heat behind my grill...

heres the pics with piaa's placed not installed and new rear inner fenders installed allso building new deck i got 350-450 lbs of wood in the back almost lvl makes me almost wanna put shackles and ol leaf removed..

give me your info about the 85 watt bulbs...ps i hope u like

Looks nice, Imo I would drop it since it looks good in that pic, as far as lights you shouldn't have problems with heat since when your driving the air will cool it down significantly.

I got it today from the Mrs, Matter of fact as I ordered my TC but explained that March 27th was the last Purchase (e-fan) so I think its pretty Fair, especially since we wasted $60 on Tupperware yesterday at Wally-World. Been Married for 21 years, and bought her a new Stang as a wedding Gift but both it and my T-Bird were gone within first 3 months, so my latest trick is that I justify the mods as being for my very last truck I'll ever own routine and it is cheaper to spend dough on my 03 to get her the way I want than to buy a new one at $40K plus and not be happy. For our 25th Ann I'll hit her with a new Challenger (6.4 by then I hope).
