DTM030...almost positive I passed on on bell shoals? Maybe... And I was on 41 the other day I was going to Little Harbor, my parents keep the boat there. Its actually in the background of a few of my pics.

I like the exhaust. What is it? I also like a little chrome but that's a bit much for me. If you love it that's all that matters, man. I like my truck and could care less if anyone else does.

I cant really help you with the exhaust I can say tho that it is just straight pipes...love it amazing sound but the tips are a random part the shop I like to go to just happened to have it just chillin in the back and I told em lets try it out. So glad I did it, to me if you put pipes on a truck they cant be to small because itll look odd. Both the exits are 5" I think

I'd say remove the chrome pillars on the doors, the chrome wind deflectors, the rear wing and the chrome door handle covers. IMO, it's a bit tacky. Sometimes, less is more.

I don't mind the wing, but all of the chrome is just too much for me. Esp. all that chrome on the doors and up front. I and others like the wheels choice and stance! I prefer the exhaust at 45 degree angles behind exiting behind the rear wheels. Black out headlights will reduce a little of the chrome look on the front, that and take the bug deflector off and it will look like a different truck up front. Get a ptm bug deflector. But short of the headlights that is a lot of cash you have sunk into your truck.

Everyone has a difference of opinion, you asked, so here's mine:

Hate the chrome - I even hate chrome bumpers, front or rear, so all the over-and-above chrome you've done looks terrible to me.

Love the black - I'd recommend for the taillights putting blacked out covers over those smoked LED taillights, it's what I did with mine and it looks much sharper (again, my opinion).

I agree with an earlier post - that wing is very ricer.

BUT, what matters is your own opinion. I don't have to get in your truck every day and drive it, you do. Do what you like since you're paying for it, driving it, maintaining it, etc.

Well I have wanted to black out my heads but due to the amount of chrome I have, "I" (lol) think they were keeping the looking going but if I smoke em out I think itll look better and knowing me ill want to get a black grill (saleen) bcz i only went with the chrome look bcz when I first got my truck it had 90% of the chrome already on it so I just said w.e and ran with it but my favorite look has always been a hardcore black out. SO I want some opinions on new headlights I already have a few ideas im open for all kinds of input on it. And actually I asked this already but only got like one answer looking for more. I am not going to change my rims so the question is will they look ok if I "was" to black out my truck? I think itll look fine but im mainly asking because I dont wana take a shot in the dark and have it be crap.

Might not even happen just want some input on a "what if"
And I do appreciate all the input positive or negative
Thanks

Like every one else I done like chrome....my truck has some chrome but I just bought it and mine has the beige as well so it does not look that bad. If it were my truck at the very least the pillars, wind deflectors, and bug guard would have too go. tint the heads and tails, hid that *****, and def get the saleen grill. Your wheels look great and will continue to do so even if you completely murder it out. Ever seen a blacked out mustang with chrome cobra rims??? Never liked wings on trucks but mine always have the full cap on the back....

Just my $.02

well, i think your truck looks pretty nice.

the only things that i don't like are the chrome mirror covers, b-pillar covers and spoiler. the rest of it just works.
