you could always do Like I am and remove the key ignition and replace it with a selector switch and push button start.

You could always paint your grill and I made a custom billet insert for my ranger

I used gutter gurad peices from Home depot, come in about 3' sections with two clamps on them which I removed. You'll need two which I zip tied together in the middle, but some people use glue. Climate in Colorado won't allow for that though. I used a dremel to cut it to size to fit in between the lights. My particular grill has two screws that attach it running behind the top crome piece. I but the screw through the billet before screwing back into cross member to hold down the top. As well as drilling two small holes and used little zip ties on the bottom to hold it tight against the grill (these can't be seen easliy).

Thank you hays I've got a 2000 but everything else is the same. Your thread got me excited and you received some great ideas. It sucks to try Ballin' on a budget.

if you swap the front end you can always black out the headlights like i did. cost me absolutely nothing because i had the paint and the silicone already. i didnt do a front end swap though i have an 04.

i have a BL on 31s on my 01 and it looks pretty sharp, and you can always find cheap used or even sometimes new rims, i paid like 50 bucks a piece for some nice lookin Dick Cepeks, tail light and headlight covers, and paint some of your engine components, and yes definitely take off them little mudflaps
