wheels, tires, leveling kit and debadged!

I debadged my truck a couple of weeks ago and added a "C" Cummins badge on the tailgate I painted black to fit my de-chromed theme. I finally got the tires (ProComp Xtreme AT 35x12.5x18) for my wheels (ProComp 7089 18x9) along with installing a 2" leveling kit. To finish out the appearance I am going to powder coat the bumpers and install a RAM ST grill which are matte black. let me know what you think! (yes, I know it is dirty but I wanted to post up today )

if you really wanted to dechrome everything you could line x you front and rear bumpers and line-x your rockers to leave the entire bottom black i think that would look pretty sweet!

when i changed out my grill insert i wanted to keep the black look in the grill so i went with a blacked chrome speed mesh and i have to say it looks pretty nice.

"The Look"

I think you should stop right where you are. The truck looks great. I wouldn't do the rest. It looks very tasteful and yet different and personalized.

The truck looks great...

Debadging is the only way to go, the clean look its the best.. I bought mine and they debadged it before i drove it home..

I bedadged my Magnum R/T and i got more compliments then ever, i even had someone ask me if it was a new model Benz, i was in Mexico when that happened haha..

looks nice.

Never thought about linex on the bumper. wonder how it would stick to the chrome?

ive looked into powdercoating the rear, just didn't think it was worth the money for the look. guess i am getting cheap here latley. Heck I went away from the all black look

get the windows tinted to help out the look

Looks good. A road armor bumper without the grill guard will look sweet and some dark window tint will finish the look.
