i was contimplating leaving the stock bumper on my truck instead of a rollpan...either to be different, have more chrome, or just to be cheap, lol.....be sure to post up pics after its done, i am realy curious to see how a dropped truck w/ 18s, and stock bumper looks!

 

I like the stock bumper over a roll pan just for ultility. I still use my truck as a truck, I just want it to look awesome. How would a bumper with the chrome painted body color look?

 

You could always cut it down.

 

Stacks like on the big rigs!








Just kidding.

I haven't decided yet what I'm going to do. Right now the exhaust has been cut and is dumped before the axle. I'm about 90% certain that I'm going to have new piping welded and have the exit where the stock exhaust was only a bit different by tucking the exhaust so that you just barely see the bottom of the tips. They'll be pointing downward somewhat. I'm not really digging this new sound with the dumped exhaust, it sounds too "loose". I noticed that the tone got REALLY deep though.

 

I'm thinking along all of those lines. I'll definitely post pics up when it's done.

 

Are you going to shave the tailgate handle? I still say that it will look much cleaner. Glad you decided to go this route!

 

I think it is going to look good. I personally like the bumpered look better unless the truck is slammed.
Definately keep me informed on what you do with the exhaust. I love the clean look I have with the dumps but the noise is starting to get old.

 

we could always trade exhaust!
