The grill doesn't go with the look of your truck IMO. But that front end looking real nice

Nice work. I have a question about the tail lights, did you have to do any modifications to to the truck sheet metal to install them or do they just bolt in and the same goes for the wiring for the rear lights. I want to change my side door mouldings from my '03 version to the '07-12 version but don't know if it will mount to the truck in the same factory holes or drill new holes which isn't an issue but the less fabrication to do the more time to do other things. I also want to install late model power folding and heated mirrors. The black plastic on the doors can be removed to expose painted door posts not sure if there are any mounting holes but I'm going to do the same along with the back corners between the windows and rear glass.

taillights will be straight bolt in...however the reverse socket in the 07+ are smaller so you will have to dremel out the socket to make ur existing socket fit...or rewire...no fab is needed for the lights to go on though...07+ mirrors will go on 03-06 but if your truck is wired for heated mirrors you'll need to wire for that and definitely for powerfold
