Thank you. It was a fight between delmonico red and that blue color everyone likes. But as my 97 ram is delmonico red I figured I'd keep it going.

Also have a CAI, and magnaflow catback.
Wants: shorty or longtube headers, tune. I have a buddy that's a gear head going to tune it for 100$ so I'll let you know the power increase when that is done. I have the 3.92 gears. Before the leveling kit and 35" tires, it ran a 9.8 1/8th mile. A little slower now. Haha.

That looks nice. What did you do to mount that bumper up? I couldn't find many that were compatible with the sport bumper. Or so they say. It should just be swap out the bumper mounting brackets I would imagine.

I had to remove the whole sport bumper, plastic cap, all parts behind it, and the metal bump guard for the frame. The new bumper mounted on with 8 bolts directly to the frame. Only took about an hour. Really simple.
