where did you get those black door panels?

custom fiberglassed by a guy in FL, he ran free to somewhere else and still has my A Pillars that house 2 tweeters in each one, but i'll have a teammate here do new ones once i find some more.

24s, double din was easy to install actually, just had to cut some small things away. gotta re-wrap the dash in black seude/carpet/etc, playin with diff materials hence the white fuzzy lol.

as for the drop, if it was cheap to bag it, i would lol. 1400 is a good price, but the labor needed behind it, im sure it would cost alot.

Dang!!!! am gonna paint my rim to black after seing this. nice truck man!!

thanks!:D

great start. de-badge it, paint the trim white, and lose the running boards.

repaint them white instead of tan or just weld the holes and get them painted over.

i would go for painting. thats what i did. much cheaper in my opinion. yeah, i decided to do it all black except keep that little bit of chrome for contrast. i have an expy teardown thread in here somewhere that shows some of the pieces already painted. will post more once i get more painted.

I lowered my 4x4 7 yrs ago and it didnt cost me anything. you just have to relocate your torchen bar stops up about a inch & 1/2 (that will get you 7" in the front) and use two wheel drive expedition springs in the rear (that will get you 5 in the rear).

I too live in wa!
