Welcome! Great lookin truck and can't wait to see how the gauge trim comes out and the grille!

Thanks Mike, I'll keep you posted. I just went over your build thread. Killer truck and you gave me a few ideas myself! Ill hopefully pull the trigger on a Diablo Tuner, and after Tow Mirrors I'll be grtting my buddy to retrofit my headlights. Anything electrical I tend to stay away from haha

Got the shop to wire up my Recon white lightening tailgate bar! Looks pretty good IMO, and the white reverse light helps for the back up camera at night.

I really like the look of that Recon LED strip. I've always been a lighting freak, and now that I actually have a vehicle with room for lights I think I'll go crazy.

 

What did you wire the strip to? I know you can plug it in to the trailer port, but it looks like you chose another way.

Yeah Im starting to feel the lighting bug! Lights just make the vehicle look better (if you tastefully do it). But that being said.. Anything to do with electrical I get a shop to do. I don't touch it. But I know they just spliced into the trailer hitch. Clean look and looks good IMO

So I decided I can't justify paying over $1000 for tow mirrors so Ill just colour match my caps. Should have my interior pieces back this weekend I hope! Also just got my buddy to order parts for a retrofit on my headlights! They're gonna look killer and I can't wait!

Keep an eye on the "for sale/wanted" section of the forum and that's how I got my mirrors for cheaper but still brand new [emoji57] could work for you too! Even keep an eye on the mirror thread cause sometimes Supercharged will get some mirrors that he can sell for less

Finally got all my painted parts back from my painter (He did it on the side and I was in no rush). They all came out flawless and I love the Brownstone Metallic even more now haha! I got all my interior pieces painted plus door handles and mirror caps!

Next for paint will be my headlight housing and light shrouds, headlight cover, and the outter grille!

My colour combo for my truck will be Brownstone Metallic and Satin Black! I think the 2 colours should work well with eachother, you tell me!

Heres a few pics:

Next on the list will be retrofitting my headlights and audio system with a few lights in the interior.

My good friend from @KleanConcepts (on Instagram) will be doing my headlights and Im too stoked to see how they turn out. I went with him because of a good reputation and he's local to me. If anyone is looking for a good retrofit (especially in Canada) contact Spencer at Klean Concepts.

Anyways my headlight build will include:

Rigid D2 Driving pods in the bottom

Projector swap with 5500K hid's

KC etched lenses

2 switchback strips per housing

Demon eyes on the projectors

Tinted turn signals

Housing painted satin black, chrome will be brown

 

I believe these should look nice and clean! Not too overdone, but still flashy.

 

As for a audio I will be going with a completely custom JL Audio system.

I will be tying everything into my OEM headunit for a clean stock look!

List includes:

JL C5650 Comps (Front)

JL C5650x Coax (Rear)

JL HD 900/5 Amp to power everything

JL 10" TW3 Sub

Match DSP 6 Ch processor

And one killer custom sub box to hold the sub and amp

 

Pretty stoked to see on how it all turns out. All of this should be done towards mid-end Aug!
