My Tastefully Blinged White 2008 SUT

[hotstang46`]

Here's my new truck. Had her for about a month now but wanted to wait on the picture posting until I had some mods done. I had to travel 2000 miles to pick her up. She was a hard to find, stock 08 White w/ Sedona interior, air suspension.


MODS SO FAR

-Billet roof mounted light bar
-Tires: BFG TA KO 325/60/22 (37.8 overall diameter)
-Wheels: 22in Rozzi Fuels (Same exact wheel as the diamo, except couldn't
find the diamo in 22 despite their company saying it's available. They
pointed me to this and said it's manuf. in the same plant and is the same
wheel.
-Lots of Chrome Accents
-Bi Xenon HID's
-Ready lift leveling kit
-Latest release LockPic (this thing was easy to install and is awesome. I
can't wait to hook up side cameras that function with the activation of the
turn signals!)
-Factory Nav Added
-Husky floor liner (best mod yet for rainy, muddy portland oregon)
-more to come
-next mod will be genuine HID fogs in place of those driving lights. I am going to piece together things off of ebay for $125 or so and see how things come out. $1000 kits for fogs is a friggin rip in todays market.

very very sweet...i think chrome front and rear towhooks would be a nice touch.

As long as you like it, that's all that matters

Why didn't you opt for the polished aluminum floor mats?

I like it, and yes tastfully done. IMO you need a rear cross bar to balance out the front light bar.

It was a tough decision to go with the husky's...

and yes those are on the list of mods I've yet to do. I have a bunch more mods planned but I change my mind so much I'll just post pics as things actually get installed.

Very nicely done. Hummers forever..BRUTE

[Lean Machine]

Looks good! Great external mods. I like the color of the interior also.

[DuckTruck]

Love the interior color.

Good looking rig....congrats.

Looks great, keep up the modding with tastefully blinged mods...

Ditch the light bar and tint the rear window and you'll have a "10" in my book.

PS: as much as a dig a matching spare, SUT's look soo sexy with a spare delete.

I NEED the light bar so it has to stay. I have a home down in the Palm Springs area of CA. This truck will be doing frequent offroading in the mojave and other area deserts. You can never have enough light out there as the sun goes down.

and ya, I thought it did look nice with spare tire off. I actually deleted it and everything but the mrs absolute hated it. Said she thought it looked way to squat. Don't know if that had an impact on my mind but after a few days I started thinking so too, so I ordered up another wheel and tire. She looks good both ways, at least I have a full size spare in case I get a flat in no man's land when I'm offroading.

Nice truck, I have the exact same one minus some bling. But looks good. With the level kit, did it effect the ride at all...I was going to get that done when I get new tires. Right now Im running 20's with 35's and wanna get 37's. do your tires rub with the level kit installed. and Final question, wheredid you get your bi-xenon hid headlights? are they true Bi-Xenon, can you tell a difference between the highs and lows. Any pictures at nightwith the lights would be awesome.

The kit I bought was not true Hi Low. It is telescopic hi low, which is fine in my eyes, it produces more light on low than the stockers on high. I tell you what to, I don't see many people talk advise this feature on here (maybe because they're a little newer) but I would make sure to buy a "slim" kit. The ballast boxes are so thin and you can squeeze them in many more places. These are what I bought, and I actually had a ballast show up at my house dead. The seller had a new ballast in the mail same day, with tracking, without even requiring the old one back. A++ in my book. I went with a 6k kit, which performs great and looks nice.


(don't know if this is the right bulb model or not, just wanted to post a link to his auction)

As far as the leveling kit. It did stiffen it up a tiny bit in my opinion. closest way I can describe it would be the difference between riding around with say....40 psi in your tires vs the max 50. So you'll notice it for maybe the first hour or so that you're in it but it's very minor, so after that you won't even remember. As far as rubbing, I have a tiny bit, on the frame at full lock. Nothing big, but I was kind of expecting it. My tires are almost 38's. They don't touch the body panels anywhere (I did trim the inner rear portion of the fenderwell though).

No pictures of the truck at night with lights, if I take some I'll post em up. Put up a pic or two of your truck, love to see it!
