    Ya I took the pic from different angels and distances. When you look at it from the front it is level. I spent a good hour taking measurements and eyeballing the look of the front end. When I put the front bumper on.

    Ok first question is details on the hood and lights.. .Those are sick and I bet the hood is lighter then stock. Am I right?
    Second question is how much did they cost. I kinda want one now.

    I know this has been posted on a couple different related threads but I got my 20" xd128's on with 275/60r20 duratracs. These tires and rims are so epic and I haven't noticed any change in power over stock so I might just look to re-calibrate the speedo and be done with it. I was originally gonna try and get some gears for it. If I could make any change I would try for a +25 Offset instead of a +18. I wonder if there is a way to machine the back without weakening them too much.

    [​IMG]

    only had to do minor trimming to make them fit. If I had the better offset I am sure they would fit even better. Any idea's from others you can find me on my build thread listed in my signature.

    Hood
    hood is made by Carbon Creations. Weights about half from the stock hood. The halo light I found on DT motosports, they were the cheapest there about $120. The hood was about $900. I'm not sure about your tire size. Mine has a lift with 295 on. I wouldn't machine ur wheels. They would loose the strength for sure.

    Is it a straight swap putting the older clock/hazard into the '15?

    The hood only shows for 2005-2009. I wish I had someplace like this around my area of country so I could talk to them about doing a test fit. I was also hoping someone would make only slightly flared fenders so we could fit our slightly larger tire sizes without rub.

    I know for sure that I would loose strength but I am wanting to know whats available in the casting for trim. Sometimes it can make them stronger because the casting was overdone where the lugs hit. I gotta wait for a tire repair facility nearby to open up on monday to ask them whats on this one. Perfect would be 7 mm more. would take 3 at this point. lol.

    Basically you need 2 terminal repair wires p/n 82998-12690.
    The new clock/hazard switch( I would recommend trading with another member.)
    Then check the link I told you about for wiring. Post #119 and #123 are the best for help. Also I'll be posting more pics there later today.

    Pretty much from everything I've ever seen and read yes. The butt plugs at advanced auto are constantly trying to sell the iridium plugs whenever you ask for plugs. Then they try to tell you they will perform better in the 4.0 engine. I damn near got into a full blown argument with a guy one day and I pulled up a post somewhere that talked about only using the copper spark plugs. As I am showing this to him the store manager was walking back in and over heard the exchange and told the guy he was wrong he needed to go on break. He apologized to me and said he's still new at this.
