Default 2005 7 lug build thread

Hey guys finally gonna start tweaking the ol turd a bit and figured I'd start up a build thread finally.

Here's what I've done so far:

When I got it
West Virginia off road stickers
Led interior lights
Blue interior
Led light bar
Led tail lights
Halo headlights
Led reverse bulbs

To come:

3 inch level kit
New rims and 35s (truck has factory 4:10s so no regearing)
Tow mirrors
Raptor grille lights
Saleen grille

Welcome to any suggestions guys! Thanks for looking

Thanks man, it wasn't hard at all, the worst part for me was the clips in the center plastic piece came off backwards lol. I think white would look good as well, I had my old 98 white, but it had red interior.
