I installed my new rear bumper, and I took the truck out for pictures. What do yall think for a 97 with 190,000 miles?

 

looks pretty good man. just needs lowered now

 

nice photoshop.



lol. I hope you plan on lowering it. not a big fan of ground affects though.

 

I'd like to lower it. I bought it new with ground effects for it. and i used photoshop to get the reflection of my big head out of the tailgate lol

 

yea, looks good but i'd lower it. especially with that body kit on there.

 

Clean lookin truck. IMO loose that chrome front bumper, and get some wider meats in the back, but other than that looks great

 

Nice ride!

 

Looks good. I like the ground effects.

 

Not feeling the skirts or that front bumper valance, looks like
Roll pan looks good though, needs more low

 

dang man thats a little much coming from a VW fan. Its sad sideskirts, bumpers, etc are considered ricers now.

 

Agreed.


I think your truck looks really good. Don't listen to him man.


Edit: Just for reference your truck looks really similar to the Ford Ranger Thunderbolt which is totally "ricer"

 

yeah that ranger has a little too much. like you guys said lowering it will be just enough. a little spoiler, and hood scoop just seems like a waste of time. I hate cars that have random stuff that they dont need like a hood scoop on a stock 4 cyl. but ill lower it. i might just lower the rear end to make it sit even.

 

I was joking when I said the thunderbolt was ricer. I dig it.

 

U probably could flip the rear leaf spring mounts should make it level.

 

nice truck

 

that could work. and thanks guys. I might have to switch back to the original bumper.....
I forgot I owned a trailer....

 

Was it lowered in the front? I had the same idea... "make it a stand out"! I get thumbs up with the summer rims on. Its like a hobby...you got to stay interested...I want to have it look good with out even trying....

 

I personally don't care for those skirts or anything else for that matter. Just looks out of place. Those odd shaped curves look weird. Just my opinion, though.

 

i like it but if the rear was lowered 2-3 inches it would look even better. dont go back to your stock rear bumper get a new hitch

 

get a hidden hitch and a GM flip down licence plate braket. problem fixed and still looking cool.

 

It's the stock lift it came with. It's for towing, so the rear end levels with the front when I pull heavy stuff
