Send me some ideas on how to add some red to the exterior without it looking tacky.
Body kit geting painted and ima add some fender flares possibly
Thanks in advance everyone.

I wanna get them upholstered but its so pricey!! needles and i dont mix to well anyways. My Mother bought those for me for my birthday so i kind of sort of had to put them on for a little while. And the rims y i thought would look good but i just dont wanna do it then find out it dosnt look good and have to redo it all again.

I'd take the seat covers and wrap your mother up in them. Get stock leather seats...can't beat the look.

What do you mean they fly up on alot of people? Mine may be agressive but im attached to it cause my brother and i bought the hood scoop and mounted it to the hodd then made it look pretty with some bondo. i look at it and see good brother times since hes gone now. and yes im missing the t on the grill .

They will do you no good, just make your wallet lighter.

Stock bottem ends are pretty dam strong and its wise to never touch them.

Save your money and just drop it in and gets the heads checked by a machine shop.

And fender flares???

No.

Lets just say i got a really good deal on the rods and pistons plus the motor i had , had a chipped piston and scroed wall and had to bore it and these pistone were the right size for me. it was just out of luck that it worked out the way i did.
And the fender flares would look good. not the super wide ones but the ones that will just let me moveer the fender an inch over so i can tuck my back wheels for clearance issues. Im not parting with my rims cause im stuborn

What kind of friend are you? Tricking him into making his truck slower than your car.

He already had the motor so he just went for it. his old one shot a rod through the oil pan. plus if that the case i just saved him from killing himself. he dosnt need to much power
