then i bought a crate motor from ford, bored it out upgraded a couple little things nothing major. currently has 15,000 on it
next i got a bull bar for my bday as well as 2 130 watt kc daylighters
lights were too big for the bull bar so i got a roll bar and mounted them there.

i love the lights! the new lights without hids were 100% better visibility than my stock lights,,, then with the hids, it was about 100% better than the stock h1 bulb it came with haha.
deffenitly happy with them.
love the cut off from the projectors too, not to mention the cool warm up process of the hids haha

I like those lights! How much did it cost you for the new headlights and HID's? I wanna do that. Your truck looks good.

lights were just shy of 200, and the hid kit was 130.
thanks!

I saw on kijiji a store in the south has hids on sale for 85 bucks for a low/high. Incase you want some for your fogs.

Did you get the BL online or is there a place here that sells them?

nah im not gonna get hids for the fogs.. it will just blind people because theres no direct light pattern. ill just get a bulb to match the colour. right now i have yellow in..good road vision but doesnt match and looks bad now.

i got the BL from national. they give me discounts there just from me going there all the time haha, reg 320$ got the kit for 240$

 

[basshead]

also forgot to mention i got 06+ tail lights
today i put on 06+ badges

tailgate isnt shut all the way just realized

going to look at 06+ fender flares tonight.. i love the look of the new ones, and bushwackers are waaay out of my budget

 

[K.Strong]

Sorry I never got you the picture of my lights. Think I'm gonna hold onto them for a bit.

How did it go with the flares? I can give you the number of a guy I found in Calgary that has a ton of rangers sitting in his yard with lots of parts for sale if you like. Pretty sure he has the new style flares aswell.

its okay hahah i figured i dont need them for a while anyways.
im going to look at them around 10 tonight the guys workin late. i hope they are in good shape.. they are grey painted so it should match my two tone perfectly.
(not the type of grey the level 2 have).
also considering the mudflaps too.. not 100% liking the look of them though il see
