Ok so I don't know where to begin in the absence of having a camera I have created a monstrosity of a roof rack, added mudflaps', painted my brakes, took the chrome covers off my wheels the chrome is a plastic shell and then I painted them black with bed liner (I give that inspiration credit to babysilks wheels) then I used the air ride suspension load sensors to lift my rig 3 inches or so off its knees and mos recently I added 6 lights 4 up front in the lower valance area which as I and some of my friends have described as "chiefs meth mouth" due to the fact that it looks like yellow teeth and then I tinted my factory fogs yellow and most recently I made a new grill out of some cool wire I found at Home Depot haha and then some of you guys my remember that I blew up my reverse lights well I just ran a toggle with 2 hot wires and inline fuses one a 5 amp to the factory reverse lights and the other a 15 amp to my aftermarket reverse lights and boom work lights and reverse lights and the one of my friends drew all over my dash so I just started coloring the interior with a sharpie and its starting to take shape some people actually bought it that it was a Harley expedition haha umm then I plan to do an olive green duraback paint around the out side. Will add some photos later from the computer :p you guys have any suggestions or questions tell me please!

Haha what the hell is that tip...? Little bit of overkill on a gas engine...

If you like it, thats what counts, but honestly I would take that off. Looks corny.

Looks like a traffic cone. But like you said, all that matters is if he likes it. A lot of people don't understand me lowering my Expy, but it's what I wanted.

So why make yourself look like a fool by adding a kerosene can to the system...? Seems counter-intuitive if you want to show up the people who do not know how to open a hood. All they think is look at that guy with the diesel tip (most people probably dont realize its just a kerosene can) on his gas truck, he probably thinks it makes it go faster...

Oh shit never thought of it like that. Good point man... Well exhaust tip is on my list but headers and paint are first then cat delete and a muffler cut out then full MSD ignition and then custom bumpers and a roof rack and lift kit

Not everyone has the balls to drive around in an 'ironic' truck.

I just fear that people don't get it. I mean how do they know that you're not just one of those d-bags that you're making fun of?

Probably not.

What's to say the next car you see modded like that isn't doing so to make fun of you.

Should have used an actual Folgers coffee can. Went to a local cruise night a couple years ago and there was someone driving a Civic (I think, it's been awhile) that had a full card board body kit with masking tape and an actual coffee can for an exhaust tip.

Dude I totally know what you're talking about, these morons used to hang out at a shopping plaza by my house , mostly rice almost no American muscle. They called themselves the Toledo Tuners and one of the d bags would walk around with a camcorder and record people pulling in and parking and getting all these stupid camera angles like he was shooting a Hollywood movie, it was hilarious then he would tell everyone he was selling these videos he had made lol. They would talk about racing each other and who beat who but when I brought my tubbed 66 nova I had with a 327 and a big ol cam and lumped through the parking lot nobody seemed to want to race lol. Granted there were a few nice rides there that were actually modded but most of it was just civics and eclipses with the usual body kit, rims, giant wing and AutoZone fart can. It amused us every weekend.

And for the exhaust tip it has to come off it is some sort of road violation now new ordnance so I will be making a new one any suggestions like a resonator or something I want it to echo at idle.
