I'm kinda at a loss as to what to do next.

Truck has been
de-badged
Tint all the way around (windshield included) brow is next
Interior dome light is LED
Led reverse light pods
Changed the headlights
Changed the tail lights
New Nitto tires love the stock wheels
Don't want to level it I like the rake
Custom tuned
Saving for torque converter.
Muffler is gone.
Bed cover

Going to do the back seat mid when I remember to do it.

Have had the truck since may? 2013 1500 express ccsb 4x4

Want to upgrade the speakers and add a sub or two, have the 3.0 radio however. Trying to ball on a budget lol

Any ideas? Open to all suggestions.

Thank you.

I've been eyeballing different antennas as well, they look great when lower profile. Just worried about reception.

Bed lights! I need to look into that.

Was actually looking into fog lights this morning. I think I'll just replace the fog bulb with a 9005 bulb.

I would love to do the dash cluster swap if I can find one for a good price. Maybe time to cruise the junk yards.

A couple of quick and cheap mods...
Dee-zee tailgate assist
Cabin air filter

The radio antenna is fine as long as you are in the city.... not so much out in the country
Got my dash cluster from car-part.com

Tail gate assist is on the list for sure, have to order the door for the cabin air filter.

X2 on the radio upgrades. I just put the 8.4 in mine to replace my 5.0. Love it. I also replaced all the stock speakers with JBLs and added the SRAMQC09 Kicker sub. Overall sounds great...and you can do it on a budget. Most expensive part of my "system" was the 8.4. I got it with the bezel, extended harness, and HVAC module for 800 though so worth it to me since the radio is 1k alone. Its a good set up if you aren't trying to **** your neighbors off by rattling their windows LOL. :happy107::happy107:

I can justifiably spend that kind of money sadly. I think a line adapter would suit the needs. However they are attractive. Shop tried to sell me a $3,000 alpine unit. Shew!

Kind of my thoughts lol this time of year especially. We're a one income house, mama raises the babies. So, have to be frugal when I can.

I NEED to buy floor mats lol, I have a truxedo cover already. Really like it too, the truxsport model is working out great.

I'm up in the air over a catch can, may look into them.

Didn't think about engine bay bling. Need to investigate that, thanks. I want to paint the engine cover, one day the valve covers would be a nice touch.

I want 5" tips, just not for $150+.

Any links for a nice looking diff cover?

IMO tho don't be up in the air about the catch can, you'll be very surprised how much oil you'll catch from it and stop it from going back through the t body and intake. A well worth mod in my eyes. I'm repainting my engine cover right now too but it'll be nothing fancy. I'm looking at some cheaper exhaust tips so if I find a good set I'll let you know and let me look up later for diff covers but those will be up to you for liking so maybe a google search wouldn't be bad idea for you.
