Looks awesome. I've always loved black vehicles, just had a hard time with the constant cleaning and waxing. Looking forward to seeing the finished project.

looks awesome. when you get the new wheels be sure to get black wheels also. that would look sick.

Got a little time on my hands tonight... Here's some photo shop ideas..... The headlights are being shipped overnight so they will be in tomorrow. I just couldn't wait hence the photo-shop.... I blacked out the wheels and added some final touches...

I'm going to mount a couple of spot lights... Not everyone's taste I know but I think it will look MEAN...

Had the opportunity to take a couple shots today....

Here goes... Keep in mind that I'm having the leveling kit installed maybe this week and the wheels will be in within a couple of weeks......

FFW..your truck looks sweet and appears to be getting better by the day! I bought an '06 Ram Lonestar about a year ago....I've done the performance mods and got my sub in. Now it's time to look @ doing what you've done with the blackout thing. Any info on the SRT style hood....did you buy it from Dodge?Ebay?...is an aftermarket...ie Keystone or other brand just as good?
Any info will be helpful. Anyone else is welcome to chime in as well!

By the way, I questioned the orange peel on my truck when I was looking at buying it....they had me bring it back within a week and they sanded and colorbuffed the whole thing!!! If there's anybody that has recently bought one or is thinking about buying one, I'd give this a shot.
(The salesman saidthe orangepeelwas from putting the newly painted trucks outside..before they were 100%dry?.....don't know if this was a load of B.S. or not.......I though orangepeel was from to cold a temp)

Hey FastForward,

First off, I think it looks great.

Do you plan on blacking out the Tail and third brakelights as well?

im 50/50 on the blacking out of the tail lights and the 3rd brake light... i gotta see it on this kinda truck (a blacked out ram) before i can make my decision on that one.

Thanks guys for the comps! Wheels coming next week..... Just need to purchase the tires now.....

All parts bought for this are Genuine/Mopar products.... Including headlights and Hood.....

As far at the tail lamps go, I was torn.... The body shop offered to do it for me but I declined at the time...

I also plan on taking this truck over to the shop who painted the Porsche so they can color sand it completely for me as I also don't like to orange peel look.... Need both cars to match....

Hope I didn't miss any questions,

-Eli
