I'd go with the Texas Bumper, and single round headlights. (all though, they are very bright :evil: ) :P
Lights look good on bumpers. I would also get a chrome drop down visor.
Air cleaner lights. (the LED lights inside the top of the air cleaner)
Get lights under the doors, and blue lights behind the sleeper.
Might as well get a set of straights. :P

That's a future plan, when my pipes get worn out. I'd like to get a set fabricated eventually, and paint them flat black.Might as well get a set of straights. :P

Why tonite only? I have tomorrow off, might need to kill some time.
I like a lot of chrome, but I also like the painted look just as much.
Nice visor, I like that.
I like that bumper too.
Double round headlights perhaps?
If you don't like lights you could have them put those tiny LEDS up top for marker lights. Almost invisible in the daytime.
Trains horns.......I don't know if I'd use the insurance money on them, but I do like them, hidden of course.
8" stacks, black chrome.....naa, that wouldn't look right with blue and white. Too bad you can't get a different color other than black or chrome.
Louvered grill?
Rear window?
Painted fuel tanks with chrome straps or painted straps.
I love spending other peoples money 8)

Oh man. Sharp truck.
I like those, too. The needle nose, butterfly hoods.

I am a huge fan of the needle nose Petes. If I could replace the entire hood with a hood from a needle nose Pete, I would. That Pete you linked to is awesome! If I could swing the money, I'd buy that in a heartbeat! It's even painted the right color already, lol.
While I like the double round headlights, I want to go with something that sets me apart from the pack, which is why I was looking into getting larger buckets from an old pickup truck. The Double JJ single rounds do nothing for me.
I had considered going with LED's up top, but I was told by the guy at the body shop that some of their customers have been getting ticketed by DOT for them. Depending on what headlights I get, I may have a set of bullet lights installed on the top of the fenders to act as turn signals.
No rear window, as I have cabinets there.
I actually have looked at those fenders before, but they are way too expensive. Approx $1700 unfinished. But I do love the way they look.
Can't afford the full rear fenders - the last time I got a quote on them, it was about $3100 finished. I have plans though for something that will look even better, thanks to Teal95KW.
The look I'm trying to achieve is an old 40's style pickup truck, rodded out. Eventually, I plan to replace the dash with a steel dash from an old pickup truck, painted the same blue as the fenders, with minimal gauges set into the dash. But not yet.
