Well, I got my truck back when the Government was offering the cash for clunckers program. I traded my 2001 Dodge Ram and got the $4500 off my 2009 Ram back in August. So I really saved money on it, At least I think so. And I do have the 4.7L ST.

I went with the ST Just because I'm still young and I did not want to be in debt for a long time, plus I had to manage everything around rent.

Oh and I have cloth everything on my ST I don't have any vinyl in it. Is that weird/common? Because I did test drive another ST and everything was vinyl.

According to the Ram "Build your Own" looks like you can get cloth on an ST but only as part of a $770 option package?

Ok so I just bought a chrome bug shield (by mopar) on ebay for $65. I also Bought a chrome tip Exhaust for $55. Gonna wait till they come in. Can't wait.

Also waiting to get my money refunded from that pr1ck from ebay that never sent me the chrome rear bumper I bought from ebay.

On another note. I was scrolling throught the mopar estore (a few months ago) and I was wondering if anyone have any pictures of the chrome visor air deflectors. They never have pictures of thier accessories. It says that they supposedly have the ram logo on them but I've never seen that. Also noticed that they don't have them on the website any more. Can I still find them at a dealership?

Another question. Can I paint the front fascia even though its plastic?

Onve again, Thanks for every one's help, critisism and ideas!

Sure you can paint it. Usually best if you add a flex agent to the paint when painting plastic. Just talk to the guys at your local auto body supply, they can get you set up with what you need.

So, I've always liked the way HIDs look. I was wondering if installing HIDs would void my lifetime powertrain warranty? I'll install them, but if it voids the powertrain warranty then I wont. Can anyone help me out?

Only way they would void your warranty is if they could prove that the HID's caused the warranty issue.
So far I haven't heard of anyone HID's screwing up their powertrain.
