I know it's an oxymoron to have ground effects on your lifted truck. But what do I do with them? I have a 2004 RAM HEMI SPORT and it drives me nuts because it's too close to the ground. I want to put a 6" lift and some 35's on it, but my husband is insisting it will look ugly because of the Sport option ground effects. Any suggestions?????

There is a guy at my work with a Daytona ram with a 6" lift and 35s I think it looks hot, ill try to get some pics of it this week if I can, I switched to days and he works nights so not sure if ill see it.

Similar to this without the ugly hood/wing

That's what I thought!

I thought it would look totally hot with a lift. I just need to convince my ol' man. Pictures would be really helpful. Thanks!

the topper

I'm not wild about the topper either. But it's functional for transporting bikes.

I think it will come out great. I have a Topper or a Cap to and some times it a pain in the butt and other times it great. I have slept in it many of nights camping.

Dude!

I ordered my kit and tires today, she'll be all done in a week! I've gone back and forth about the topper, but the truth is, there's far more rainy days than nott in Seatle and it just makes sense :)
