Go with a 2" Body Lift, or a set of HiD's (on sale right now 30% off from HiD Extra) maybe a new muffler? Air intake? LED interior? CB radio?

Got the cat gutted. Was thinking snorkel but thought it would be kinda poserish seeing as I never do that big of mudding. Painting the roof rack isn't a bad idea. Black out rims?

If you get HID's put them in projector housings so A: they're usefull & not a wall of light 30' infront of the vehicle & B: you're not pissing off other people by that wall of light.
LED's for the interior are cheap enough.
Black out the bowtie on the grille or w/e color you want.
Bed armour the rocker panels after sanding with a 3M pad & cleaning for $50 or so.
RainX the windows $10.
$40 driving or flood lights at Harbor Freight & a relay & switch if they're not provided another $10.
Sending me a 6 pack of beer for all the ideas should be around $20.
Finding a used grille guard online could be $50 or so, sand, prime & paint it yourself & a great place to mount the lights I mentioned.
Side window air deflectors & a hood deflector are good to have/usefull & add some good looks IMO.
Another set of cheap floods at Harbor Freight for aux. back up lights. Just get a pack of 3 way splice connectors to wire them into your reverse lights.
(Hmmm how else can I spend you & your wifes money?)
CAI (cold air intake) has been covered, check out ebay - chrome intakes are decent & not much moola.
Stay away from throttle body spacers, IMO & others they are bunk, a waste of time & money. Spend $15 & get a fake turbo sounding attachment for the exhaust lol.
60" rear LED ribbon for stop, turn, brake lights etc. They fit nicely between the bottom of the gate & the bumper.
Get an "AOOOOOGAH" horn from Harbor Freight - $30 I think. Don't get the High Low "air" horns from them unless you want to sound like a coffee truck at noon.
Hey, just go to Harbor Freight with 2 hours or so alloted to browse around.

Now about that beer.......

Hahaha some good ideas I have to take a rain check on sending the beer already drank it tonight. I like the black out bowie on grill. I think im going to debadge it all the way around seeing as the "chrome" trim on the doors is peeling. Sounds like I could have a pretty good weekend with a couple rattle cans and some painters tape.
