I like the new lights, and the billet. Could do without the push bar and the OU thing whatever that is.

I just looked again, that is a while new front end plus billet. NO?

haha, sorry guys -- was off work and not on much --

Thanks for the kind words...

Yes, the westin logo is upside down b/c when I bought the truck, the cross bars were rattling and the welds were busted -- so I had a buddy re-weld them.. when he did, he flipped the ends somehow and taht is how it ended up.. I will prolly take it off sometime soon

and there is NO WAY that tag is comming off until it falls off

everything that was changed is the headlamps and signal lamps to the 02-04 look, the grill to the 05-07 with billet inserts.. the grill is trimmed, but not one off of ebay - got it from a friend and its not perfect, but as you can tell in the picture, the westin grill guard hides its imperfections --

Aaron -- I was going to take that off, but the wife likes it and will get mad..sooo, it stays -- and it doesn't look too bad..

and Ben -- night driving is better -- but still not great... soooo, gonna get some silverstar ultra's to pop in there... i've heard from several superduty owners that they make a world of difference, short of going HID's... which I neither have the $$$ for or the want to upgrade that much...





and I just got chipped this weekend -- soooo I'm pumped!!
