Tinted Taillightlights, tinted turn signal housing, Lower Valance, Chrome locking gas door,painted red bowtie,locking trunk and Skull brake light :p:


I used 3 light coats of VHT nightshades and 3 light coats of clear coat. I masked off the backup light part. The VHT's only cost $15 a can and it was more then enough for the back lights and front turn signal housing.

The brake lights still shine very bright and so do the amber lights through the turn signal housing.

I got a lower Valance cause I read you get better Mileage with one. I didnt realize how much nicer it would look too. I got mine brand new on fleabay for $50 shipped.

Locking chrome gas door

I bolted a locking trunk on the bed for road trips so I wont have to take up too much room in the cab and my junk wont roll around in the bed.

If Mr.Bush pulls through and we get that tax releif check I want to lift the front 2-3 inches to level it out and I should be done cosmetically.

Looks good man, I might have to use that nightshades stuff on my taillights. 15$ is a lot cheaper then 215% for a new set of aftermarket ones :D

It's come a long way dude. keep it up!

Long live cable and fast load lol.

Thats why I went with nightshades.

Ebay lights are like $100 +

Every time I think I'm done with this thing I need to do something else :rolleyes:

Here are the nicest ones on Ebay and they are pretty cheap but I dont know if it will match our trucks body style since our trucks are boxy. It looks like the lights on the Rams
