Trup's Diesel Mod Thread

no head light upgrades?

I will eventually do some JJ retro lights and same with the fogs, as I wont be doing any kind of offroad bumper or anything like that.

But I want to focus on reliability, performance, and drive ability mods first. There's a lot of things to learn about these CTD's that's waaaaay different from a gasser.

 

[TheMaddog]

thank God, youre doing lights and no front bumper, i like how they look.

Only reason I know about them is my buddy has all TGC on his truck, and the thing rides like a luxury race car. It's tight, and smooth and he's got the 6 inch on 37's!

So without breaking the bank, I'm gonna mimic what he's got, and if I'm happy I'll stay there.

Here's his truck:

Got any more pics of this truck? Or is he the forum? I'm wanting to to my bumper black too.

That's a really smart idea. But whenever you do get around to those headlights by JJ, they're gonna look awesome.

He's on here, but he's not really active. I'll get some more pics of it tomorrow for you. He went plastidip crazy!

I like the black gas door. I've been considering mine black as well. It looks good on the red.

 

[kcbigbadram]

Thanks man I appreciate you getting those for me. I'm gonna try the plasti dip bumpers.

Sorry to make you clutter up your thread with someone else's truck. They both look great

 

[Trupiano]

No man I don't mind at all. Whatever I can do to help!

 

[argray90]

Wow thanks for posting those picts of the plastidip from and rear bumper. Now I must go purchase a case of plastidip and get started.
