Hello everyone. Brand new here and soon to finally be owner of a Daytona edition quad cab 4x4 Ram!
...maybe.

Ive been doing some research and cant seem to find an answer. I was under the impression that all the Daytonas came with lower body trim/front airdam, SRT hood, spoiler, and side exit exhaust. The one I am looking at only has the SRT hood..BUT.. it does have the interior orange trim, rear decal, and Go Mango paint.

Was the side exit dual exhaust and lower trim kit/front air dam an additional option? Or does the quad cab and 4x4 nullify those options?

Thanks in advance

are you sure it's authentic? you hear about people adding aftermarket stuff to vehicles to fake it. i guess it doesn't matter as long as you like it and the price reflects fair value. I saw a program that showed how there's all these SuperBirds that have been faked up.

Im fairly certain its legit. I guess the Go Mango color was only available on the Daytona Version. Paint code (PVE) matches

The body kit was standard, you either have a fake on your hands or someone removed the pieces, which incidentally are a ***** to find nowadays. Go here and run the VIN: https://fcacommunity.force.com/RAM/s/equipment-listing
That will tell you if it is real or not. The following options will show on the build sheet:
* Front Air Dam
* Daytona Edition Group

Does it have the number ID tag on the dash? All are side exit exhaust unless changed and lower body kit.

Well thank you all...
It's legit. It did have the side exhaust after all. The spoiler was removed as was the body kit.
