Default If you had a 1000 to spend

What would you do to your truck if you just had 1000.00 laying around?

This is what I've done up til now... Cab lights, level, tint, Fuel hostage with 35 BFG mud terrain, tinted tails and brake, gryphon, painted bumpers, bumper grille, and billet badges on the way. I also have a pioneer DVD with sirius .Now I have an extra 1000.00 and look for some input on what to do next. With the risk of being bashed , I'm thinking body lift (cost), and projectors with HID's...

I have looked at the halo's.. can you run hid's in them? When I asked the seller he said it is not recommended.... I've heard it can be done??? Not sure, never did anything with headlights.

some halo's are cheap and HID's run HOT and can melt low quality halo's im looking at some 6000k HID's and plan on runnin them in harley heads cause of the black housing and just chrome reflectors
that looks best to me. if you want HID's in halo heads look for some that have them in there as a combo kit. that way if something does happen to them you bought them that way and you'll have a leg to stand on
