    Haha I know right. I'll take a pic of the red leds that sort of give it that look

    @COMiamiFan
    See his color matched valance below the grill? That's what I was talking about when we match the bumper caps. I'm thinking another $100 because i probably wouldn't need them sand blasted.

    I feel like I need a couple more jobs, or maybe just order more credit cards before I write off the ones Ive already filled up.

    Maybe take a long term low/no interest loan out out with @joonbug ???
    Probably the Joon loan would work best.....

    @Almaboy I've seen that and still on the fence if I wanna color match the valance. I kinda like the black for contrast. But I'm sure it can be done.

    Look in the mail and I'm sure there's a Capital One card you can apply for to afford more mods.

    Several mods ordered this week. I put a deposit down to have a custom one off grill made by Gravel Empire. Note sure if I want to do the double 40" bar set up of something more simple. I also like the look of just two 10" bars in the middle of the grill. The two 40" bars seems to much. I will be doing a different logo at the center and using a different profile of leds. But this give you an idea of what I'm looking at doing. I'll post the cad renderings when I get them back. Thoughts on this?IMG_7651.jpgIMG_7653.jpg

    I also ordered Auburns limited slip differential for the rear end. This will be installed in a few weeks when I have my gears swapped with 4.88s. IMG_7659.jpg
    I got in my rear fox reservoir shocks that were built for my lifted application. I wanted to have the black reservoirs match the front 2.5 coil overs. IMG_7595.jpg
    About to order atlas expedition leaf springs with the added leaf. This will eliminate the rear blocks and add another 500lbs capacity for when I haul a trailer. They take 8-10 weeks to make though.

    I ordered all the components for my retro headlight build. It's going to be a lot of work but worth it when I'm done. The projectors will be custom etched with a design I want. Going to be doing demon eyes, RGB backlight halos, smoked reflectors, switch back lighting and iPhone controlled RGB lighting. I'll post a write up after I do the install. I have TRD pro headlights to replace my Platinum headlights during the build process.

    I don't know man. I like the black valance. @Mat1018 rig looks awesome. Just how I want it to look with the black accents and tires/wheels. Ties it all together. White looks good too, but I think I'm staying with black.

    I agree. His does look badass. So does yours. I think I'm gonna shoot for the white so we can tell our trucks apart when we are sitting in the same parking lot....or in the woods;)

    guys i have white too... and i had this issue and stayed with the black valance on my 2nd gen...

    but you gotta remember with a black trd pro grill AND blacked out heads and fogs (retro or just BHLM and the black fog bezels).. thats plenty of black contrast..

    i just don't think you can go wrong one way or the other... i think both are dope

    What's the issue? You wanted the longer bed I needed interior space. Both are good choices.

    LMAO. I bet the color of my ass is whiter than yours. Then we can see who's more white :rofl:
    And if I wanted a Hispanic color, I would have bought Quicksand :stirthepot:

    It wasn't the longer bed that attracted me...I just use that as my excuse

    It was the price. Pueblo had the "special" going and I cut payments from the Taco.

    If I would have ended up in a CM then I would have gone up $10k
