Looks nice!

If you want an inexpensive way to increase airflow to your engine while also adding a custom look, check out tweakrover's write-up on constructing a mesh grill.

Don't cut your panels, unless you are OK with starting a lot of air noise and rust.
Your truck is sitting way to low and should be lifted to gain the proper clearance, especially if you plan on a bumper, sliders and or a winch.
Do it right!!!

Nice ride! I like the color, and your license plate I wish I had access to dunes

Thanks Mike and Honda50r for your comments, Honda50r, think about a trip to UAE and will take you over on one of our weekly Desert Drives

Dear Mike,

Took the car lately for a Desert Drive along with the Family, and it was pretty good ride but at certain stage and while trying to climb some of the Dunes, the car had bottomed down and I could hear the tyers rubing the wheel hub specially that I was trying to gain momentum and speed alike.

Just as a reminder I have the 265/70/16 tyers installed, rear fender Camel Cut but everything else is stock i.e. Spring Suspenssion and Shock absorber. So what do you recommand ??? a 2 Inch lift would be appropriate as don't need to have more risk of roll overs while on Side Slopes or Crossing Dune Edges...

Awaiting your valubale comments! Regards,

Gas
