Do you have x-reas option? If so did it complicate things?
My dad has a 4th gen that I really want to build up esp since he insists on keeping the running boards.
Also what size tires do you have now and how much trimming are you looking at?
And yes that looks bad ass or as my buddy says BTLRDY. You 4th gen guys are really making it hard for me to keep hating the new body(read...Im getting jelous).

Lookin wicked bro!...black always looks sick...makes me want to paint mine, lol. Good work, I am curious as well regarding what size tire you are running...they sure look larger than 285's...maybe the angle...I dont know, but they definitely fill up the fender wells!
We are most likely gonna use the 3/4 photo for the web page...if you have any others, or take some while you are on the trails, that would be killer.
Again, great work...glad to see our Nitrous Enterprises Spacers in the mix.

no xreas, ask 4route about that -- she has xreas, and is the queen of 4th gen mods! you should not have many probs at all. my advice: get rid of the running boards and add sliders that are canted at an angle to give you some "running boards." for trimmimg...oh, my...best described in terms of a cultural icon -- it just keeps going...and going.... take a look here to see what i did just to the body mount brackets, and i had to do more after this. the plastic is the bulk though. i am running 285/75/16s on 16" rims w/3.75" of backspacing, you will have a MUCH easier time than i if you are running 16" rims already. good luck, have fun and go for it!
