Looks pretty good. What do you want to do with it? That will help determine what you might want to do to it.

The APC clear corners have been discontinued. I have a set for sale in the classifieds. They are good , but not perfect by any means.

With a 2" bodylift you can clear 50" tires pretty well. Some have done a little trimming and carefully fit 31".

If you want to go big check out the MML (Marvelous Mystery Lift)

Are you going to go rugged or flashy? A friend once told me to pick the side of the fence your going to go quickly or you'll end up with a mismatched truck.

Enough to cover the shipping and maybe change enough left over for a Rockstar Juiced?
I really just want all this stuff to find a good home.

I had Weathertech Weatherflector in channel window deflectors. They did a good job for me.

Shoot me a PM with a shipping address. I bet $25 would get all of them shipped to you.

Tape on looks fine if installed correctly.

My friend had a pair of in channel and I have the ones on the outside. If both are installed correctly, both will provide years of use. I prefer the looks of the in channel ones though. Much cleaner install and I would go with those next time.

i got some clears for fogs on ebay a while ago, paid A LOT for cheap chinesse crap. But they work. accidently dropped the grill taking it off once, broke the cheap chinesse fastener...

Consider what I said in our correspondences. The money youll sink into it could go a long ways else where.

Agreed. The Chinese do not make quality products. Buying one quality set is cheaper than buying 2 crappy sets.

Well. The page didn't load for me, but I'm assuming what you linked is the non fog light one. Those can be had every where. The clears with fog lights. You can't find. The ones I did buy was on eBay. I'm not sure if they are still on there, but those were the only ones i could find on the net.

I'm in reference to the email you sent and my reply.
