Icon5 Poll Time check it out

I have around 100 to spend on sweet truck stuff. Keeping in mind that all of these will eventually make it onto the whip, just a matter of in what order.

Fiberglass fenders, ^this is glassworks 6in flair. I would be getting fiberwerks 3in flair.
Pro- It would clean up my gnarly dent in the driver fender, more aggressive stance, make me want LT more.
Con-price 360 to my door, not painted so either "Hood Rich" white, cheap home brew job or pro paint 250+


What do are your thoughts on this?

Do the gauges for sure. I want those too!

As for the Kenwood stuff....I had that same amp, KAC-6402 400w 4 channel. Fantastic amp. Natefx407 has it now and loves it too.

FG fenders are pointless for your truck and will look rediculous.

Probably not, but you never know. Just buying the aftermarket faces costs around $100.

Bam !

Well Ive ordered the gauges, they fit my trucks specs and i did not notice (at first how the speed numbers are way cooler 0-20-40-60-80-100-120 vs 10mph increments) this should be solid! less and less jannky stuff on my truck FTW ! hahah.

Ill get the bass package sometime soon too, just need to find the time.

Case Closed thanks.
