Hi all, I just got a new (to me) '03 Ram 1500 QCSB Hemi 4x4... this seems to be the place to be, so I joined up! The truck already has MotoMetal 20's ad running boards on it, and the only things I want to do are black it out, and get some retro'd HIDs...

Nice catch!! You saved a bunch of cash picking up a Ram already accessorized. Congrats on the new truck and welcome to RF.

Thanks everyone for the welcome! Here's the Tar Baby - soon to have all the chrome magically become black (through the magic of plasti-dip, that is). More will follow as soon as it stops raining every day so it can be made clean.

Yeah, there is a place near me that will powdercoat both bumpers and the steps for about 350. And I'm getting some black w/ clear corners housings to mount some projectors from retroshop in. Also trying to decide about tinting the stock tails or going aftermmarket - budget will probably make that choice for me.

And yeah, brand new set and they're great! Quiet on the road, handles good, and takes sand and light mud just fine.
