That is sweet looking truck, not you got me wanting to run an offset stripe down my bright white 2016 Hemi.
I have been looking into black wheels and LED tail lights as well.

I have to say, you truck might be my new motivation.

Well thank you! I found it easier to find nice Tail light replacements if you have the oem incandescent bulbs than my oem LEDs lol

Does the Dee Zee tail gate kit work well and how hard is it to install? I ordered one for the truck I have on order.

Thanks,

Mark

Yeah, my 2016 Ram id the base model (The grill and bumpers aren't even painted) and I have found that most the LED tail light upgrades I like online, will work with my OEM incandescent bulbs, but not if you have the OEM LEDs, it is the only advantage my base model truck has.

I think its pretty simple to install. I honestly found a YouTube video to follow along with to make it even easier. Its worth it.

Following - I've got a 2018 sport in bright white that came with the black OEM 22" wheels. I've removed some badging, tinted the windows (dark), put HIDs in the lowbeams, LEDs in the fogs and put a leveling kit on it. I'm debating on getting a black mesh grille...but can't decide if I want an all black grille on there or not.

Also added some LED fogs...However, I keep forgetting to take a picture. Still trying to decide if I want to just try LEDs in the low beams to start...before I go cutting that hole in the back cover for HID kits
