Haha, I haul a horse trailer, and that's usually it. I was wondering what people think of the look of them.

Finally got the gauge pod installed, and it doesn't fit right, so they are sending me a new one. Here is the old one after I installed it.

that sucks something like that happened, hope you can get it fixed up alright.

Truck is looking good.

On the tow mirrors, I go back and forth. I kind of like them when they are down. The only time I like them flipped up like that is when someone is actually towing something. when people drive around with them up like that I find it "poserish", but thats just my opinion. which is what you asked for haha so hope noone takes offense or jumps down my throat.

I do think they add a more aggressive appearance if thats what your going for though

Yeah, I am going mainly for appearance but I do haul around a horse trailer. The wreck was back in November, and I never got around to posting a picture. It's all been replaced except for the brushguard. I sold it to some guy on craigslist for $100 haha. I am looking into bull bars with retro'd Hella 500's to replace it.

I forgot to post about this earlier, but I did a conversion from a sport bumper to the regular bumper with the 2 plastic shrouds

So from this

Thanks all, hoping to look into new wheels this summer and either a 3" lift or just a level.

Been awhile since I posted on here so here are a few updates. The Hella 500's have been turned from 35w to 100w and will soon be replaced by HID (when I have time). I deleted the factory license plate lights and made a custom setup of LED lights that are super bright. I changed my exhaust for the third time from a Flowmaster 40 to a Flowmaster Super 44 (much deeper tone and throaty at higher rpm's) which has been my favorite upgrade. I finally finished the Vacuum gauge install and am now on my second tailgate lightbar (DO NOT BUY FROM LEDGLOW!!! THE BAR ONLY LASTED 4 MONTHS AND HAD TO BE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND REPLACEMENTS DON'T COME WITH A WARRANTY). My exhaust tips have been powdercoated silver and I have just a few little interior accessories added. Will post some pics when I get a chance.

Haven't been on here in a while. Made quite a few cosmetic changes in the last few months and figured I'd go ahead and post them. Not sure on how much longer I'll have the truck, probably going to upgrade here around the beginning of the year so I'll leave this up until I start on a new truck.
