nice 98 wes, i also have a 98, white one. Its pretty stock, are you thinking of doing, or have you done a gotts mod? I believe it will be my first mod, read only great reviews, it's cheap and simple.

Nice loojing truck man! I also have the maroon color and has grown on me a lot since I bought it in january. You should look into the gotts mod with like a k&n filter thats what I did since we basically already have a cold air system from the factory. Mine is pretty stock though still too I removed the door accents also which is really easy and have rhino lined the bumpers. Looks good to me. I wouldnt mind seeing what my truck would look like with tow mirrors on it so I vote that!

Delete the side trim - Personally I think this generation looks so much cleaner without it, but if your not a careful parker you will get a lot of dings ! - And I agree with Hollabakzach23; gotts mod and tow mirrors.

yeah im removing the molding i got a trick for removing it with some fishing line. no preformance mods yet but they are coming soon. i just had to figure out why my truck was under powered but i did a tune up air filter and a fuel filter and it runs like a 4.6 now. but yeah im gonna do gotts mods along with a edge evo tuner if i can find a affordable one

looks like a good list dood!
here's my opinion on your upcoming mods:
Tow Mirrors - wait till you have some more height, they looked goofy on mine until i lifted more
Lightning Heads - will look great
CAI - against the gotts mod?
08+ SD Tails - great idea
Camo Rockers - maroon and camo don't mix to me
Hella 500ff - have em and work great
my choice for next mod: the l heads, will change the look completely, and help you define the direction you want to go with the truck
and i'd add an edge evolution to that list and some more meat on those rims
