Default Finally took some pics of headlights and level kit

Hello all I am fairly new to the site and I love it it's awesome. Sorry it took me so long to upload but I have been busy as you know what! Well that headlights were baked in the oven then taken apart for painting per instructions that I got here. Not the easiest thing to do though, I think next time I will take my chances with the eBay lights. But they did come out good Also I installed a 2.5 front leveling kit which also looks awesome. Well I hope you like and please tell me what you think. I am also going to include a few pics of my back up cam and screen, oh and the factory sub with an aftermarket sub in it.

Thanks! I got one off of eBay, it's a 2.5 front leveling kit. No name brand I got it at Buy it Now for $70 and free shipping! Honestly it looked like it was home made kit but it worked, thats the chances you take from buying from eBay

Looks great! I would tint those tails and paint the handles and that will look even better.

Thanks! Well thats this weekends project the tail lamps. I want to paint the handles and mirros to match the truck and get the crome door handles but just for the lever not for the backing plate. After looking at the pics I think painting the bumpers will look better anyone ever done that?

I think it was an Omega brand camera I got it at a local radio shop it was about $75 it came with everything including the drill bit, and the install was a breeze it just needs a little more of an angle for a better view

Looks sick! Nice job on the HU and the cam, very nice. Im interested in some info on your sub replacment. I take it your truck had the audiophile system from the factory, and you replaced the sub. Mind sharing info on how easy that is, and what sub you used? Does it sound better?

I have the audiophile system in my new 08 FX4, and my sub box looks like yours. The system sounds ok now, but Im sure it could sound better. Im not interested in adding those big sub boxes or big amps though. Does the audiophile system come with an amp? Or is the sub totally driven by the HU.
