Question Any ideas for my truck

I have a 2008 FX4 Supercrew with almost every option, I already have an Airaid Intake system, new Mamba wheels, Wrangler MT/R's, Tinted windows, and hopefully a 3" Readylift leveling kit and a 1" block in the back, that Im waiting to get installed. Any other ideas for my truck?

Attend some truck/car shows in your area. You'll see first hand what some folks are doing (or better "not doing") to their vehicles. This should stimulate the ideas for the next modification(s).

Personally, I try not to copy another vehicle. Flatery is great for the original vehicle, but I look for the one that stands out and is different.

Good to ask here; see what folks are doing, then do something completely different.

I think a new grill would be a good start also. Another thing you could do is get some different headlights/taillights. Change out your tow hooks to chrome ones. By looking at your truck I feel like your theme is Black and Chrome.....maybe im wrong????

Ok first off i am not trying to dog on everyone elses ideas just what i think

I think scratch on the Chrome that everyone else is saying youve got a beautiful truck and chrome? BLAH I would say get either a black bull bar or brush guard. Personally i like the black grille it could maybe be a bit less bland but if you were to get a new grille i would say once again black! Also maybe some of those window Flares might be a nice addition to the truck.
