Default Full HD Front/Ghost Stripes...

Well....Got some more cosmetics done to my truck. Went a little lower, front minitubs, hd grille/bumper cap, 8k HID's, colormatched handles, added some pearl ghost racing stripes on hood and tailgate ss wing, and painted inside dash bezel. I just need to go shoe shopping, wheels finally made it in today....Truck's dirty but here's some pics.











This is what was done to the fenderwells to be get rid of the rubbing issues and clear a wider tire. Not too crazy about pizza cutters...




The rear fenders were just rolled some more.


Here's a couple of pics out in the sun where the front is more visible.

It's about 6/8, the rear has some air in the shocks but doesn't drop much more due to the caltracs. The lower valance is 2" off the ground. Front fender measure 26" off the ground.

yep only the grill and cap are different but the bumper mounts have to be moved down 1.5-2"
