This time i added a lip at the bottom, new headlights, and new exhaust.
I wanted to replicate this ford here:

The paint on the lip could of turned out better but it didnt, still pretty satisfied with it. The headlamps were easy to paint and it turned out as i wanted it to be :D I'm still not sure about the ride height though, I think i'd prefer to leave the ride height stock because i want it to be a sporty truck but functional as well for everyday use kinda thing.

Lowered

I left the ride height normal for the moment but that can be adjusted. I wish i could get more pictures but my camera is dead and i cant find the charger for it. This is becoming one of my favorite cars in my collection for some reason :eek:

Well today i went on ahead and painted the grill black, i couldn't make my own grill so i decided to just change it from red to black. I guess it flows more with the headlights.
Heres some more pictures :) they arent the greatest but thats all i can do

I like what you did to it, although a Viper engine would look mean in it. I'd say drop it an inch on both sides. Awesome nonetheless! :smokin:

I'm really glad you guys like it =] as for the viper engine, i decided it would b too much of a hssle to make it fit and not very practical for a everyday truck. I want this truck to replicate sporty everyday use. I've added a small spoiler on the tailgate and painted the top part of the side mirror red.
Here are the final pictures for you guys!

What I think would be best...
A Ford GT engine.
Make it the equivelant of the SRT-10 Ram. :D

How about dropping a supercharged 4.6 from the SVT Cobra in it?

The SVT engine makes it into the SVT Lightning.
Nothing special 'bout that.
I say go GT. :D
