Not that naked ya pervs. lol:roflsquared:

The truck will be going naked this spring. I will be putting the truck into the shop in the next week for some repairs. And while it is in there they are going to remove the sport decals the 4x4 on the side, the tailgate dodge and 4x4. Still deciding on taking the 1500 off the sides.

On a side note I need to do something to cover the holes in the wheel wells. I'm not a fan of flares but that is the only thing I can think to cover them and seal them. anyone else have some ideas??

When I get her back from the shop she will look like this.

Exactly Adam. Right under the lip is where the old sport flares and boards were. I hated the look. I looked like an old man truck. But now with the holes being exposed they are starting to rust more than I care. I don't want to spend gobbs of money to repair all the dang holes. So I guess I will have to cover them up. I have heard you can get stuff that will stop rust any ideas??

Not sure what I'm doing with the tails yet. I was gonna swap out for some LED's but not sure yet. I have colormatched tails that came with the sport upgrade. But I don't like plain tails. Not to mention I like how the black breaks up the rear.
