Ehh, doesn't do a thing for me....and I love regular cabs! I just can't get into the big wheel, small rubber thing. I know I'm probably in the minority around here, but 18-20's with 35's would look better to me.

This! I don't get the whole "rubber band" look. Put some tire on the thing. There are "donks" around here with more meat on the tire than that truck.

And I made this statement on another forum and I'll say it here too...
When this wide wheel fad goes out of style, there will be a freaking ton of overly wide rims for sale.

Thats the first 6.7 I've seen with a billet grille in it. I like it!

it's done

well she's painted!

she's not together in the pics all the way, just good enough to get her back home.

12:30am here now and I just finished getting the front all together just right again. hopefully i can snap some good pics tomorrow

the blue truck in the pics is my buddy's converted 7.3, then my green 6.0, then the 6.0 dually

Needs the new tail gate, and ptm bumpers. Bed would be nice but $$$$

All three trucks look damn good though

B.Warning · Aug 31, 2014

Not every damn thing needs to be ptm or switched to 08+ body parts. That truck definitely isn't my style but is done correctly on my opinion. The chrome bumpers and original tailgate flow with the clean style he's after. Plus with that extremely loud color ptm would be way to much green.

I agree with this 100%.. I hate seeing ptm everything, it drives me crazy. everyone does ptm bumpers, when was the last time anyone did chrome bumpers and smooth ptm bumper plastics front & rear?? PTM bumpers would be too much.. the bumpers match the wheels, chrome grille, chrome mirror caps, & handle pulls nicely IMO.

Thank you for the kind words sir.

I remember you saying the bed wasn't gonna happen lol

Going with the platinum gate will look great. I'm a fan of the ptm bumpers with chrome grill insert, but the chrome bumpers doesn't look bad by any means. I can definitely respect the tying in of the chrome, I'm gonna do more ptm on mine, but chrome wheels has me at a toss up of how much ptm is too much.

semperfidooordie · Aug 31, 2014

Any details on the Dually? Your truck looks great all finished up. I like that you didn't bomb it all green. The chrome adds nice accent. Thanks

semperfidooordie · Aug 31, 2014

Trying to decide what way to go with my truck...thought about big lift, big tires and big wheels...thought about a setup like your buddy has. I'm torn on what to do...any info on interior? Subs, custom interior work, navigation?
