Underdrive pullies... Exhaust tips are nice.
Maybe some clear turn signals... they have some with the chrome trim out now.

You could get clear corners, tails, or a grill. There isn't much you can do for $100 that would change the looks.

Yeah i figured that...but my brother has some buddies that are into custom trucks and they can get me some stuff on the cheap cheap. Maybe some OE rims...I like the style rims of the 93-97 Fords, i call them Chopper rims....its not the bullet hole rims, I dont know what they call em, but those are cool....I was realy looking to lower the rear about 4"...thats my main goal right now

Hmmm......you could black out the grill and put some stainlees bedrail caps on. Lesseee.....bug deflector would like nice. The exhaust tips are a nice idea. I agree with the new tailights (since you got the hookup).

Power pulleys don't do much..don't waste your money on them.
