Looking for some idea's

Hello, I just wanted some people's input on what I should do next to my truck. Im kind of bored and am looking for another modification i can do that wont cost me much at all. Im not looking to gain 50 hp or any thing haha just something visually that would go along with the look of my truck. thanks for any input you have.

I'm not sure what you've done so far, but a couple of easy hitters with lights come to mind...upgrade to composite headlights, relay controls, automatic headlights...all are pretty easy and not terribly expensive. I couldn't get into your profile....what engine/trans combo are you running?

I have 4.9l/c5. Im not looking to do headers, too much work and I already have enough flow. I done like the idea of putting a cowl hood on a L6,and pinstripping is the direction id go with my truck. Thanks though

Lets see now...

Big chrome bush bar, cab roof lights, semi truck air horns on the roof, trucker mirrors with big 4' tall CB antennas on both sides, stacks since you have a step side.

etc.
