Getting farmtruc looking nice

[farmtruc]

Ok, I think I have the drivetrain about where I want it. It's fast enough for a daily driver (i can't believe i said that) for now. However, some worked heads and cam are coming up.
But, I want to get the appearance mods going. All these nice looking trucks have me thinking about some exterior mods.
Obviously, from the looks of my truck, I'm not into the bling, lol. So, the mods are going to subtle, but just enough to get it looking good.

Here are my plans, now I need to know where to get the stuff.

New smoothie bumper
New billet grill
New headlights, turns and signals (i like clear up front only)
Cowl hood
Tinted windows (got that covered)

I have an acct. over at truckperformance.com so if there' something on there let me know.

btw, speaking of tint, I just tuned an SS Silvy that had a front tinted window, 5%, WOW WOW WOW, what a difference, it felt cozzy and all the glare was gone. No more bright lights at night and during the day (well it was raining) the sun glare was unoticable. I like that idea and probably will do it. I know it's illegal, blah blah, lol, but it looked great.


thanks,

allen

Pics?

What color are you going to paint it? The same maroon color? If not red/black/blue/yellow which one.

How about a brite purple!! with curb feelers and 26'dubs!!OH and a vinyl top!!!LOL

I think the mods to the exterior you listed would be great. Give the truck a fresh look. On the cowl hood, how big are you going 2',4'??I think the hood will make the biggest different.

No pics, lol, it's just a reg. cab '94 chevy, stepside.

I'll go with the 2" hood or maybe 3".

Color, it's going to be a dark grey / silver with ghost flames in light grey, you will hardly see the flames.

maybe a 10" wing and a 6 tip exhaust, lol. oh and 3 sets of fog lights.


later,

allen

Are you going with a tonneau? Or too much weight??

[redaddiction]

I would defineately do the 5 % tint it makes a huge difference in the way the truck will look and the cowl hood would look good it's about time you made in look like a city truck

[lowred]

i got 5% and have gotten ONE ticket already in a year and a half.. 165 bucks, but i still have 5% all the way around... lemme know if you dont have a hookup on that. ill see if i can get my guy to do it.

one of my coworkers got the 94-98 silverado grille and took off his 88-92 grille, he has it laying around, id bet he would sell it cheap if you want it. i am real good friends with a bodyshop owner in floresville, i have connections with used parts guys around town as well. if you need me to find you a specific part let me know..

Dont forget colormatched grille and bumper!! You could trade out your stepside for a fleetside bed, i personally like the fleet better on the obs trucks.
ADN THE N GIT U SUM ALTZEZA TALILIGHTSES AN SUM NOS STICKERZ AND SUM FAST AND FURIUS STICKZERZ AND SOM STICKERZ THAT SAY VAN DISEL IS DA MAN OH AND A BODEY KIT LIK ON THOS SUPER SPECIL CIVICZ. THEN U WILL BE DOWN WIT DA SKREET HOLLA HOLLA PEAC OUT.

Seriously hmm what else... clears on the front if you are into that stuff, tint or get candied taillights (just dont get altezzas). Maybe some smaller rims 16's or 17's, how bout 454ss chrome rims (what i have on mine they are nice, give it a stock yet customized look). Im sure ill think of some more later, that will get you started.
