So new questions:
1)Should I have the harness bars painted/powder coated blue, black, or gray? The color scheme from the factory is black and gray in the interior, but I would rather it be black and blue. The floor will be rhino lined black so I think the blue harness bars would looks good, but I don't want it to look cheese.

2) I cant remember if I have asked this before but what do people think about these headlights (minus the SVT)?

100% hell yes to the headlights. OEM HID's are the best looking headlights IMO and custom painted is even better haha

Very similar to mine. Dawson is a good guy and turns out a quality product. I did the projector upgrade and can't believe how much better I can see at night.

I like the blue harness bar idea. Are you going to put any sort of sound deadening material in the cab? It's going to be a really loud ride if you don't lol. And the headlights look nice but I will never spend a lot of money on headlights for an offroad truck. Mine are already scratched to hell and it would suck if they were 1k plus headlights.

I got the fenders the bed and the underside of all the fiber glass sprayed with rhino liner. I then took the truck to a shop in Idaho to get an alignment, and they are telling my mom that something is wrong with the "camber" and that my truck was not meant to be driven on the street... I should find out more about whats going on this week.

I also got my next R&R pushed up to next week because I have a CCNA class in Dubai. So next week I will be taking my class then the week after that I will be back in Idaho for a few days to play with my truck, I cant wait.

Also take a look at my coming home gift to my self She should be dropped off Tuesday afternoon. 08 R1 with 6k miles.
