Get rid of the hood scoops, change the wheels, get rid of the visor. Yes, some people put way too much crap on their trucks. The only thing he is missing is the chrome trim around the wheel wells and some dice in the mirror.

ummmmmm...... not sure about that truck ever looking like a "muscle" truck. But you could try getting a SRT-10 hood or something like the extractor hoods from good mark (those scoops just do not go nicely with rams) and nice 20" chrome wheels, possibly drop it, get windows nicely tinted and get a sweet exhaust. I think then you are close to "muscle" status or atleast in my opinion.

okay, that truck is butt *** nasty. that hood looks bad, same with the visor and the rims. you need to get some subtle and tasteful mods. Maybe a subtle looking exhaust system and for god's sake, dont let him put that crap on ur back window. I'd be out there with a steamer taking that off if he did that to me. After that i would take the truck to the grocery store and buy a wet kipper and go smack him with it. They other members are right, its a ricer truck and that stuff has got to go.

Simply quality not quantity. I think quantity takes away from the smooth lines. Keep it clean.

I think the real issue people have is theme, keep ONE (1). the visors are 18wheeler, the chrome, steelies (if not winter rims), and hood scoops are muscle car...ish, and the lift would be off-road/trail rig. If he likes a lot of stuff, maybe the off-road style would be best. You can load a ton crap on a truck before it gets to be too much (lift kits, front/rear bumpers, light guards, lights, roof rack, fender flares, tires, etc.).
