not that my opinion matters much, but please dont over do it on the bumpers and lights etc.

it looks super clean in the stockish theme, maybe a nice low key rear bumper and a sort of pre-runner light bar on the front and it would look good
I agree with 86. The new sport models look good stock. Especially with the color matched bumpers. I really like what you've done, the wheel/tire, rack, you got a super nice looking truck. Now if your out wheelin and tear your bumper to shit, then yeah fab up some tube.

Thanks for the input guys and compliments! :icon_cheers:
I like the bumper on that explorer and that rear bumper is cool.. 86 and for lights I was thinking two small rectangles on the rack and maybe a cargo light facing the rear.. nothing crazy.

I'll probably stick with bumpers organic til they are damaged so I agree :icon_thumby:

And I'm from NJ 86
and thanks RSH and 92! :D

ahh its just body damage. no big deal... unless you just know how to fix it and feel like repainting it! lol... maybe a fabtech light bar like the one i just sold for that prerunner look..kinda. idk, just keep it clean. check out my build in my thread for pics of the bumper i'm working on. its a lot like that aggressive explorer bumper.. only better! ;) lol
