Not at all. I actually have a color matched Lariat sport grille on the way

OEM Leather, LED low beams, white/amber switchbacks, OEM splash guards and a Lariat Sport grille installed. What a tremendous difference the colormatched grille made to the look of the truck.

Next up, leveling kit when the Bilsteins go back on sale, Line-X, PTM mirror caps, changing the blue in the emblems to gloss black, probably an audio upgrade and that very well may be about it. I’m very happy with this truck.

2.5” AutoSpring level installed up front and a 3” ReadyLift rear block kit in the rear. Left with just over 1” of rake, which is exactly what I wanted for the towing and hauling I do. Whenever the front shocks wear out I’ll install something better. I only hated the rear end “hop” this truck had so I installed Bilsteins in the rear being I had to disconnect the shocks for the rear block install anyway. Here’s a quick picture, I’ll get some better ones soon after I wash off the 100s of bugs off the front that have accumulated in the one week since I last washed it. I hate that about this time of year. Lol

Side note: I had to remove my antenna to cut it down a few inches. It sounded like it was about to snap in half coming in and out of the garage.

Looks good, and looking forward to seeing some side shots.
It's strange how so many of these trucks seem to sit differently stock.
