    And you removed the goofy air damn good idea.
    "This" looks much better indeed. The layout of grill though the grill seems huge with this layout? Blacked in headlights would improve it to, that and a good scoop on hood hope those will be on the non limited models still.

    Oh and in that "slit" between fog lights hopefully it's perfect height to put in a 30" led light bar that would spruce it up to. That's if there is bracketing to even bolt securely to.

Front Suspension: OME 885 + NitroCharger 9000 shocks + 1/2" spacers for a 3" lift. Superbumps replacing stock bumpstops. Camburg ball joint UCA SS braid brake lines Future: ADS Extended length, extended length UCA BJ to increase droop capability Rear Suspension: All-Pro Expedition rear leafs, Walker Evans 27" rear shocks, extended rear brake lines (Wheelers Offroad), U -bolt flip kit, rear Timbren bumpstops.

    a 30" LED lightbar across the lower part of the grill would reduce the gaping size of that grill mouth.

    I agree. If the follow indent portion of Satoshi was color matched to truck the grill would appear much smaller as well... Ideas for homer already lol

    definitely much better than stock, but man that huge open mouth grille is going to make aftermarket bumpers have weird designs. those are some crazy body lines in the front to follow.
