Default Custom Items You've Built For Your Truck

I'd like to get a thread going on all the custom things you've built or designed for your truck. Whether it is a bumper or a speaker box or how you hooked up your fuel guage. So post up and lets see your ideas.

Rear bumper, flatbed, with toolboxes. Exhaust system. Planning to do a front bumper. Unfortunately, this is the only pic I have right now. I will get some more pics, soon.
