Default New 2011 Sport Crew Cab

New to the forum here. I purchased a new Ram 1500 Sport. It is getting modified currently. I hope it will be complete in the next couple days. They are doing the Groundforce kit today. Mods are
- debadge
- body kit
- black/smoke head and tail lights
- cold air intake
- magnaflow exhaust
- groundforce 2/3 lowering kit
- clear 3rd brake light
- DUB wheels
- Toyo Proxes 11 tires

So far it has been debaged, the exhaust installed and the head and tail lights are done. I removed the running boards, they won't work with the body kit. I will post more pics when it is complete.

I am considering the carbon fibre hood graphics but I think they may be too much. I want to see everything else complete before I decide.

"Updated Pics" With body kit, lowered, painted mudflaps and clear third tail light.

I will take some shots outside and get some better views. This shows clear 3rd brake light, tail lights, 5" Magnaflow tips, lowered, 22" wheels, some of the body kit and debadge.

I have ordered custom viper grille and gate badges which will take a few weeks. They are the final touch. Will post some other pics when I get a chance to take some decent ones.

I had DUB wheels on the truck but they had plastic pieces which were falling off so I changed them out for the ones in the pictures.

With the groundforce kit, the front end rode high at first but the front is starting to settle down. I was warned that the front springs would need some mileage to drop down to the correct height. Also had some issues with the LED turn signals causing a bulb warning error so I had to get resistors installed on the tail lights. Problem solved. I should also install a resistor on the 3rd brake light. After turning off the truck, it remains very dimmly lit for about a minute. No big deal but not perfect.

A couple shots where I shot in Raw and worked with lightroom to soften and enhance the black and white theme.
