New And Improved!!!

So as some of you might know I have been in two accidents in about 5 months both not my fault so lets just say i came out a little ahead... lol Over the past month i have been fixin up my car after the second one. I decided to do it up pretty nice. For starters I re-mounted my custom bumper, next decided to get rid of the OME 881's and upgraded to 883's and a top plate spacer (also a 1.5 coil spacer in the rear), then sold my 265 75 16's and got 305 70 16's and new black wheels, and since both my fenders were trashed after being in two accidents so i got glassworksunlimited.com fiberglass fenders 4.5" Flare, 3" Rise. Let me say those look SICK. And lastly I painted my bumpers silver (probably going to go back to black but we will see) let me know what you think of my upgrades!!!

BEFORE




AFTER

Looks Great! I'm liking those fenders...and the 305s give it a nice wide stance.

I like the fenders. The truck looks good.

My only concern is the amount of front lift you have. The CV's look like they are at very steep angles. How does it ride on/offroad?
