    Hmm i thought $200 to install a grill was reasonable.

    Yes, u are right in the beginng i was seriously ripped off --i went crazy the 1st mnth i purchased the truck and alot of the money spent was installation ---

    Grill - $800
    wheels & tires $1,575
    Exhaust - $380 (and HE said cash that was the best he could give me) that included tip
    Steepers - $450
    K&N CAI --- i think that was like $300++ --- my husband installed it as by then he found out the amount of money i was spending --sigh downside of being married! =(
    Tinted front window --$50 now that was a deal!
    PIAA headlights & tail lights ---tinted front headlights (yes illegal i know but i figured with HD lights -- it would not look so bad at night) = $150 ++ (??) husband purchased it for me --have yet to install the front headlights)
    Just purchased lugnuts as i now want to go chromeless for $80++

    with all that in mind, i am now waiting for the lugnuts to arrive then would have to get it installed --i want to turn my tires inside out so the white lettering wont show and i am pretty sure they would charge me for it ---

    Is that bad? :confused:

    hmmm no i didnt --- they took my brand new tires and said that $1,500 was the best they could give me with a trade in -- then i found out that i could have gotten a lot more for my tires esp being spanking new --one of my neighbour told me that Costco would have given me those tires for $700++ but then i would have to deal with trying to sell my stock so Ms Impatient was just being totally stupid

    The RBP Grille & Side Steps Killed you hard in the amount you spent on mods. Everything else sounds right if you wanted things ASAP.

    Trust me when I say I've gone through a ton of mods and different looks. Some were impulse buys in the beginning with no research. I've learned, research and ask questions before buying.

    I waited for deals to come and thats the only reason why I got everything @ such a great price. Took a long time but had I done things like you. I would have spent a TON more. However I would have had everything on a lot sooner like you.

    Enjoy your truck as you've Modded it to your liking. Don't worry about what we think. If your truck puts a smile on your face each and every morning. You've modded it just right.

    My little badass Curby puts a smile on my face all the time oh yes i forgot to add that a few weeks ago --i got cocky parking my truck in the garage (the scoop barely manage to squeeze in between the cabinet in the garage --i broke it --- had to replace a new hood --so with the hood and paint it came up to $150+++) and no i am not worried i actually took more pics yesterday right after being called a poser (I LOVE that word ---it goes hand in hand with Madonna's "VOGUE":headbang:) was trying to load it ---camera ran out of juice so charging battery now and will post it tonight.

    I am an impatient person --when i want something i want it now! and yes thru lots of trial and error -- money was spent --- and now i am lookin at maybe selling off my rims and getting something a subtle rivets and one of the member on this thread has the RBP small grill on his truck so i called RBP and tht small grill is going for $390 WITHOUT installation!!!! yikes :eek:

    If u think i am bad u should come visit my husband and all the gadgets has in the garage --like eg. this whole weekend --he has been in the garage and only came in to eat and sleep ---!workin on his lame yawn Infiniti Coupe G35 --- !!!!
    Thanks for ur positivity!!!!:D

    Those rims are fine. Get bigger tires and a lift.
