Finally the weather here has turned pretty and I got the chance to wash my baby and take some new pics of her. In these you'll see I've added foglights and my bed cover.

It's the cover from Checker Pro. I'll get some more pics of it tomorrow and post for you. It needs to be restretched right now, but still looks good.

sounds good. i have been looking into checker for my own truck and have been trying to get some reviews. Im going to assume you have the soft version as you said it neest to be stretched. I have been looking at the hard ones, but have been hesitant about the quality of the unit. any pics and suggestoins would be helpful...thanks again!!

I have talked to a few people about the Checker Pro covers, and they all said they were good quality. I have been wanting to get the fiberglass version and get it color matched and get a big black Ram head put on it..(I know this guy who is wicked with an airbrush, he is suppose to be on the Discovery channel sometime this month on that biker biuld off show, paiting a bike. What do you think about the Ram head, do you think it would be too much?

thanks for the input...i will keep that in mind as im still on a budget. I think that would be a little tacky to have that large of a ram on there, but then again thats my thougth and i like a more subtle styling...maybe if it was grey/silver with shadows blending it to black so its kind of inset into the black...? I really need to get photoshop so i can try some of these out...let me know how it works out!

Are those the MOPAR fog lights? Where did you pick them up (good price?) and how difficult was the wiring? Where did you mount the switch?

I was thinking about adding either the MOPAR or PIAA fog lights to my SXT. Here's what's holding me back:

- Can't decide if its worth the money. The front end looks a heck of a lot better, but we don't actually get much fog up my way.
- I hate wiring car accessories almost as much as I hate paying someone to do it. The instructions are rarely helpful.
- Can't decide where to mount the switch. I was thinking of getting a bank of switches and mounting it on the flat part of the center console right in front of the cup holders. As I add additional lights, etc, I'd wire them into the next open switch and they'd all be centrally located. I think that's the cleanest look.

What do you guys think?
