First wash it..

next remove the topper and get a bed cover.


next order some Dream beams and a flip kit


now hop to like a mustang parts site and invest in some 17x9 front and 17x10.5 rear wheels kinda like so:





Now get a Fog valance and some fog lights.

next do some 01+ style mirrors

then tint and enjoy

DO as Zach says and you're set. That truck will look hot. I don't care if it's played out or not, if it looks good, it looks good.

I agree with Zach, except for removing the topper. I kinda like a nice color matched topper.

I dunno if i will lift it, as it is my DD. Never been in a lifted truck so dont know how it affects drivibility. I was thinking a set of 16" Chrome bullet hole 7 wide in the front 8.5 in back. No idea on tire size yet tho.

and ima keep the topper, i like how it looks.

are there any HID kits that dont require alot of fab?

And im not big into lowered trucks. I like the wheel tire combo crazymikey has on his truck.

And if i choose to lift it, what is required to do it?

Personally I would lower it on some 17" wheels. Maybe some Cobra wheels, those are sexy!
