    My wife is amazed at the all the attention my trucks get. No heavy mods, it's the black with blue metal flake and the murder kit--all black on black.

    Anyway, I'm debating about adding faux vents on the sides, but do not want to tack the truck... Can you offer your opinion (not criticism) about your experience and suggestion with any low profile non-obnoxious faux vents...

    Me personally, I can't stand the fake vents. Not only does it suprise me what cars people put them on, I have seen quite a few that are on upside down. What's even worse is I have seen a Tundra around town that has a fake hood scoop on top of the cab. WTF. I think I still have the dashcam video of it passing by....I'll have to look.

    So shiny... :cookiemonster:
    Had fake vents on a GNX I bought almost two decades ago even though it has actual vents, one was missing, another peeling. It was the first thing I took off the car. All I think when I see those is "too fast, too furious, bro!" but that's just me (i'm a purist).

    Welcome from SE Texas! For the love of God, DO NOT go with faux vents. All of that attention that you have been getting will switch to pitty! Spend your hard earned $$ on real improvements! Just my 2 cents and good luck!
