good deal with all the extras. I have a Dinan 4.6 that I paid off a couple years ago. Would probably still be driving it but made it the baby mobile and purchased a audi s5 for the daily. saw some of the pics but didnt read all the posts. did he put the halos in or do you have any plans too? changes the looks for the better.

By halos you mean angel eyes? Yes, he put those in. One of them is failing (half of it goes dark sometimes), but I don't dare rip into the Depos to fix or replace them.

It looks like you have a very similar truck. Nice list of mods....

Little heat gun and a tube of clear silicone, get some new halos don't be afraid

just use extra silicone when you re-seal

I did that with a pair of Honda headlights years ago, you shoulda' seen the look on my Moms face when she got home and there was a headlight in the oven.

It's just not high priority right now, maybe in the winter when I have nothing else to do.

Also debating the LED tails but I worry that aftermarket tails won't have the same "finish" as the OEM ones. I think the smoke/red would look pretty sharp though.

I agree with the smoke red since you already have dark color wheels. LED taillights look great.
Buy some rep. 20" wheels to use for winter. You don't need a $2200 set for that.

x2 on that, both tmv and myself have the LED tails and trust me the quality is very good, a definite upgrade. And no more burnt out tail light bulbs!

What do you guys think about these for summer? BMW X5 Chrome Wheel Set

...and keep my black 87s for winter.

[Ricky Bobby]

I don't like chrome but thats just me.

you can get 168 reps on ebay too with tires for less than that guys asking.

[epdarks]

I generally don't like the chrome either, but I have black too. I offered him $1500 for the wheels only, he said $2k with wheels/tires.

Not a huge ran of reps myself, prefer OEM if I can...

Nice 4.6! I love my 4.8. Btw, I was able to find some perfect oem wheels with nearly new Toyo STIIs locally for $1700. They arent style 87s though. Heres a pic of em.
