It does definitely look much more like a truck, and less like a SUV, from the front anyway. Black and chrome always look tight together though. It's the off red color of my EX that really worries me. The girl in me wants it to look "pretty" lol. If I had the money I'd repaint it king ranch copper. LOL

Ah that's the front end I was looking for. Billett grills not really my style. Now if THAT one was only the torreador red.

That looks sweet. What year is the bumper? Is it a direct bolt on?

Well I have the bumper and the chrome grill, but I am lacking the chrome headlights. Is that all I need to change it completely over.

I am really mentally stuck on this one. No matter how much I look I can't find any x's exactly like mine but with the conversion. I want chrome cause hubby's was like that and I loved his truck, but I also think that maybe the torreador red would look better blacked out in the front. Black grill like that last pic and smoked lights. Pfftt. I did already buy the chrome grill but it was only 60 bucks. I want my rims/grill to match. And next is the rims I just sorta think she would look pretty with black rims. On a side note, when I take off my 01 bumper it should fit hubby's dually right? The dually bumper has a dent and this one doesn't, should I move it over? Will that tan piece of plastic come off so I could put his gray one on?
