I am not a huge fan of the tails, but the rear tire carrier (which isn't available here) looks so good!

Please tell me you weren't driving when you took the last pic!

Lol nah m8 was driving... had just woken up... its like a 4 hour trip to mountain from home so we get up at 4am to be there at opening @ 8am.... was only doing 100Kph (60 Miles) its amazing how much wind thereis at that much speed.

Cheers for your comments........... Clear tailights arent availbe in New Zealand so it helps the truck stand out

looks great. I do like the tail and the two tone paint. I've got the Burtman clear corners also and they look cool.

Thanks for the pics!

The truck looks very nice and clean. I love the look of the clears.... however.... the only thing I could think of changing, would be to get a can of black spray paint and do youre wheel wells. fininshes it off REALLY nice....
other Than that really nice man...

Those are Altezza type lights here and those look kinda tacky with the chrome (black or carbon fiber would be better) and definetly have been played out here in the US but I guess if they're rare over where you are at then go with it.
Clear lenses would be all clear variety with red/orange bulbs.

I do like the rear spoiler.

Nah Man... not wheel walls...lol. The wheel wells.... the part you see when looking at the truck past the tires next to the frame. Inside the "wells" used to be a nice black finish when new, but obviously with time and miles the color deteriorates. So when you paint in black (ohh, good song) it looks really nice. You may not want to bother, but if your like me... I like takin care of all the details. other than that nice man, nice. I dig the rear spoiler too.
cheers, Lee Hathaway

It's the place around the wheel with all the brown mud or sand that you have not washed off

Nice ride, I actually wanted that color, but got a good deal on my Smurf color one.

I like the truck, but I'd cover the tailights with some of those tinted covers to match your windows. I had altezza style lights on my pickup but finally went back to the stock ones. I'm going to get the tinted covers soon. Nice truck though!
