They'll make a huge difference. I went with the Husky ones and my only regret is not doing it sooner than I did. I've had them on over a year and the rear wheel wells just look so much more finished.

Just tinted my tail lights and third brake light. Also installed rough country wheel well liners. The tinted tail lights is a significant improvement in my opinion.

I don't understand though why the wheel well liners have those two slots, that looks really ugly in my opinion. None of the rough country liners I see online look like that... they all have a clean look to them in a little mad about that. I ordered off amazon sold by rough country.

I didn't realize until I was taking pictures after.... to be honest I really don't like it so I'll probably pull them off return them and paint the wheel wells instead.

Tinting the tail lights made a huge difference, looks great. Did you have them tinted with film or the spray stuff? Looks really good.

Thanks man I agree ... for the longest time I've been wanting to do it. I used Nightshade spray and that was just one coat. The body line just flows so much better now front to back

All that I really hve left to do is front tints, matte vinyl on the door panels, black exhaust tip, and morimotos down the line.

I keep thinking what else can I add that's not too expensive but I think I'm running out of ideas

The slots on the wheel well liners actually don't look too bad tbh. Gives it a more aggressive appearance.

Tail lights came out good. Did they stay glossy with only having one coat?
I've always been a big fan of tinted tails but I always clear coat them afterwards if using the spray-can stuff.

Oh and your next mod should be some window tint!

I wonder about the tint. Do you loose a lot of light with the tint? I would want as much bright light back there so when I have an idiot driver back there, they just may see the lights better.

That is one good looking truck. I also like the gorgeous house in the background.

As much as I like the way those raptor style grille looks I think they're waaaayyyy overplayed.
I would go a different route if I were to replace the oem grille. I personally really like the RTR Grille
Something like this -->> raptor style grille may not be too bad either. Seems pretty inexpensive and will give you that modified look.
