I like the looks of the front end and bumper. Looks like it's directed more downward, maybe less drag? Not digging the lights, but maybe they'll grow on me. Just too much chrome for my taste.

Not bad. Doesn't look so front heavy.

Let me put it like this....I'm not rushing out to buy one. I would be curious to see it in a sport model, but those fogs turned like that is just weird.

Anybody notice the door letters? Looks they are trying to do something more in like with the HD badging like that.

heads look like they are eBay specials........thats what kills me a bit. BUT, they look like a direct swap, so maybe if I decide to nab me a silver 2013, v2's lights can go to the new truck. LOL

if you don't keep your truck, can i suggest getting a sport this time...LOL seeing as how recently you have been looking to add sport bumpers

I like it, although I don't particularly care for the shape of the fog lights. I'll be interested to see what the sports look like.

Much better!!! I'll refrain from buying until the 5th gen Ram though. That should be around 2017 if we get 4 years out of this refresh. Hopefully by then the Hemi will get direct injection, possibly Multi-Air, and the 8 speed should be standard.

Bottom of the 2013 grille is alot diffrent than the 09-12 . I think they might have to cut the grille if you swap just bumpers ? 09 to 12 grile is like this \ and thats like / ...if you get that i mean

Do a read up on it. The bumper is slanted at the top hence the new headlights and grille. So doubtful its a direct away without using the entire front end.
