I have a 2004 fx4 with 115,000 miles on her. There is a 6 inch BDS lift with bilstein rear shocks. Then 18 inch metal MOTO rims stacked with 35" nitto mud grapplers. I have a super 44 exhaust then a pioneer in dash with 1 ten inch sub under rear seat.

Looking for some ideas to make the truck look better and stand out more. Can't do a new paint job yet but possibly will be looking into a new color. NOT BLACK since I would blend in way more. Any ideas would be great. Thanks!

Also I have tuner, and new gears for performance but not really looking for performance upgrades just exterior and interior upgrades

Take off your decals, get some tow mirrors, black out your heads, tails and bumpers.

That's not a bad idea, or just get a functional RAM air hood and that

Throw on nerf bars or side steps on it. And maybe look into some fender flares.

I'd have to agree with Helo, the pocket style fender flares would look great on your truck I think and depending on your taste, a bull bar up front.

I'm not a terribly large fan of bars on the front either, just seem to be popular. Personally I like the behind the grill light setup but to each their own. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with. Trucks looks great so far!
