From what I can tell you'd end up with an odd looking beast. The fender flares on the front of the 2007 are larger and rounder than the rear flares that would still be on your upgraded truck.

If you have that much money to buy the '07 parts (or you already have an '07 donor truck) why not put the time and money into getting a real 2007 up and running. You'll have a better truck instead of an old truck that looks like a newer one (with a few odd pieces on it).

It's called custom... why do the same ole shiz like every one else. As a lowrider builder I say go for it!! Build it post pics and throw that shiz in these bolt on parts guys faces!!!!!!

Fuck you Fundi. You call yours custom - I'll call is something else and we'll have to agree to disagree.
