I've had my PW for a couple months now,and have added a few things to it.
I first bought some Huskyliner floor mats for the interior,along with a Bug shield,Window vent shades,and some N-Fab 6 step side bars.
Then I replaced the factory fender flares with some Prestige RX pocket flares,and had a friend paint them to match the truck,and I installed a Peragon aluminum bed cover. I really like this cover,it's easy to install,and can be takin out in just a few seconds if needed,plus it looks really good!

I have a Rancho lift kit for it,but have to wait until I can buy the tires to install it. Lifted trucks with small tires look stupid to me!
I'm planning on putting 37/12.50R/17 Cooper STT's on it,so it should set pretty nice.

I bought a Frontier Extreme grill guard last week,but it was welded together way out of spec,so I had to get a replacement sent. I got it installed today,and really like the way it looks.

Hopefully,I can get the tires in a few weeks,and then lift it up.

I paid around $450 for it.
If you want to get one,I'd suggest finding a local dealer to get one from.
I think QC takes a back seat with most of these companies today,and the first one I received was welded way out of spec.The center uprights on the grill guard were around 1/2" to the right of where they should be.

The dealer told me that they get a bunch of stuff from Frontier like that,and that Ranch Hand won't even ship to them anymore,because they return most of the stuff for be put together badly,or being damaged from not being packaged correctly.
They seem to think that the consumer is OK with having something that they just spent good money on scratched/dented/or put together badly.

Don't you worry about those steps hooking on stuff when you are going through ditches/over rocks?
