| I agree with Lynn
What you keep calling a beater, I think look pretty sweet!
Congrats on the new ride.
So what are your plans for this one? | |

| I think I'll hold off on doing that JW, I do enough business with Stevet as it is.
My headlights, corners, tails, K&N intake, Gibson Exhaust, Bulley Bar & a few other small items are on order. Will order the 3 piece grille soon & I may actually have it color matched by Stevet...I bet you never saw someone paint a billet grille huh, I just want to break up the chrome surround a bit.
Going to get an estimate on tint & spray a liner in. Which one do you guys recommend, Rhino or Line-X?
Also need to order a Spare tire mount for in the bed but the only one I can find so far for my Ranger is a Fabtech & it doesn't look like you can lock the wheel with locking lugs.
Also I'll be installing a rollbar as well. Then when all this is done I'll save up for a lift, Tires/Wheels & gears.

| That I haven't decided yet, or the wheels or the tires & size of them.
Thats another phase of mods & I'll make plans for them once the 1st 2 phases are done.

| Thanks guys.
Had the Rhino Lining done today & installed the tails, fitment is horrible so when I feel better I'll have to do some modifications to them for proper fitment.

Hopefully I'll get my Black Double/Single Grizzly Roll Bar, Light Bar & 3 more sets of PIAA 540's ordered this next week.

| Heres the next mods & most likely the last for the exterior for a while, gotta get a audio/video system in the truck soon.
Double/Single Complete Kit, this is a pic of the double kicker but mine will be single kicker, double bar:
& then the Light Bar with 5 PIAA 540's.
I'll pick up the spare tire carrier up some time & design a better wheel mount & send it off to the welder & then powder coat it.
