Its been a little while since I updated the progress on my 2014 Regular cab, so here are the new changes...

- R/T Hood
- Painted Mirrors, handles, and antenna base
- Retroshop color matched LED tails and 3rd brake light
- Kicker QSC 6x9's, CX600.5 Amp, and Kicker 10" CompRT Loaded Enclosure
- Laramie Leather Seats and Console
- 8.4 Stereo w/ Nav and color matched bezels

This is a far cry from the base model express that it used to be. I have some new custom projector headlights on the way from Retroshop and a premium cluster that should be here later this week, so I hope to have those in by the weekend.

Great looking truck! Always loved the looks of a lowered regular cab.... Up here in Michigan you see about as many lowered trucks as you see RWD sports cars in the winter... LOL

Looks good!

Few questions, on the mirrors are they painted caps or the mirror shell painted? On the tail lights, is that a stick on beauty ring or a direct painted accent?

The mirrors are OEM painted mirrors. My express came with the basic textured mirrors without turn signals.

And the tails are OEM LED tail lights. Retroshop cut them open, painted the outer bezel, and then sealed them back up. They did the same thing with the OEM LED 3rd brake light. This is the 3rd brake light with the bed camera, but I do not have the harness yet to make the camera functional.

Where did you get the 3rd Brake light with the bed camera?

I bought the tails and 3rd brake light from Restroshop. It is a very expensive light though. I want to say the light alone without paint is over $400.

Its perfect for me. I'm not a fan of very deep, drawn out bass. This sub is very "punchy"...haha. Quick deep bass that is perfect for the Rock music that I typically listen to.
