    What grill is that and is the surround piece built in, or does it come off like the stock one. Been looking to get rid of the chrome on my truck.

    I know I hated the chrome too, it comes with the surround piece built in

    https://www.carid.com/paramount-aut...41-0201mb.html?singleid=925049034&url=1713889

    This website has a ton of great grills but this is one of the only ones I've found with the chrome delete

    Here are the pics I promised earlier:

    Do y'all think I should make my raptor lights white to match my drl bars or should I leave them amber??

    Super happy with the Alpharex Nova headlights after 2 weeks of use. Clean cut off line and plenty of output. Hopefully they hold up. I can confirm the 12-15 headlights wire into my 2007 just fine.


    Headlights fully turned on.

    Headlights fully in the ''off'' position. LED DRLs stay lit.

    LEDs also double as the sequential turn signal.

    Got my flip key cut. Programmed the immobilizer myself with a device from Amazon. I got a couple quotes to cut and program, they wanted $120-150 each.

    Most that it’s going to have to have to hold for me is the weight of 2 people’s asses or a quad. It seems pretty darn sturdy to me so I wouldn’t hesitate to keep the weight of either or on the panel.

    I don't need tow mirrors lol, I've seen you're looking for some OEM's though.
