Default Sport mods in progress with a few questions........

Ok I started off slow got the K&N drop in, Flowmaster 44 series muffler, and the undercoating.

Now im moving to finish the body the way I want it, Im changing my front grill to a body color version and keeping the chrome inserts.

I already have the grill on order but the other day I ran into a website with decals for the body. I found the graphics I want but they dont have the finishing stripe for the roof wtf, anyone seen a complete set for the roof these are the ones im looking at for the hood and tailgate in charcoal gray as shown to be a low profile.

I dont have a sunroof wont it look ****ty without a stripe on the roof?


As for the rest im going back and getting privacy tint on all windows, and these side steps in black

then im finishing up the exterior with one of the fold up style plastic toneau covers.

I have my rims and tires picked out just waiting for the capitol.

wheels

tires

and then the only thing left is to wait for the superchips cortex to come out and the K&N 77 series air intake. Unless I can get somone to change out my head unit and still allow the steering wheel controls to work.

If you read on the graphics website: Note: Due to structural rib supports found on the top of the Ram Truck's roof area, we do not offer a Roof piece.

There are a few companies that make an interface for the steering wheel controls as long as your new head unit supports it. You can also use the buttons on the steering wheel soldered to the remote supplied with the head unit and mount the "eye" somewhere infront of the head unit. Take it to a reputable stereo shop, if they can't suggest a way of doing it, go somewhere else. If they are good, they will know how to do it, right!

Well... You can always paint

I would give the aftermarket until the end of the year, then make up your mind.

I read that part which is why I asked if that would look like crap without the roof stripe, and what does that mean anyway roof supports I looked up there and it looks flat enough to me?

Oh shoot, I think I want this with the available roof stipes in Bay Gray.


What do people think of this with my silver SLT with chrome bumpers? There is even and Auto Trim Design shop here in town that I could probably get to do the install too, so I don't screw it up.
