Just traded in my 2016 Camaro 2SS on a 2017 RAM Sport Crew Night Edition.
So far I added:
305/55R20 Duratracs, Bakflip, black step bars, black powder coated OE exhaust tips, matte black hood stripes and some custom matte black graphics on the box sides...
Opinions on the graphics?

Thanks guys! It's been 3 weeks since I got it but have only driven a few times as I don't want to get it dirty :)
I'm a Sales Manager at a Ram dealership so I was pretty familiar with the truck. With the current 25% off incentive + all the dealer profit +holdback +an extra 2% for being an FCA dealer employee, it was a total of $24k +taxes off the truck!
Not going to lie. I was pretty sad when I handed the Camaro keys over but in the end I got a pretty badass looking truck and lowered my monthly payment substantially
The Camaro had a pretty loud Stainless Works catback exhaust with the factory adjustable valves so the factory RAM exhaust is very tame in comparison. Need to figure out a plan to make it loud without spending a fortune like I did on the car
Here's a few pics of the car just before I traded it:
