I understand what you mean by having all these legit parts and knockoff wheels, but 6k for wheels? In my opinion, f**k that. You can still catch nice wheels for like 2000. 6k is insane, you could buy another car for that.

Ya 6k for wheels is insane, but its all part of it. Ive spent mass amounts of money on smaller less blingy parts...

Id go with the knockoffs, you could rock them until you run into the cash to get the legit wheels.
In all reality i can afford to buy the legit wheels right now but i could get the knockoffs and have 4 grand to spend on other s**t...

do you plan on driving the truck often? i doubt you do...
in my opinion, suck it up and spend the money LOL! its your show truck, your baby... spend on it.

If it were a DD i would say screw spending that money on wheels... they will just get beat up over time, but since its not... id go all out. just my 0.02 ;)
I do plan on driving the truck but it will never see rain or snow or a car wash.

Im sure i will go with the expensive wheels but who knows i need to go five lug and i may change my mind on wheels by then so i guess i will just hold off for now.

Thanks for the feedback guys

I assumed as much...but you never know lol

I just love seeing your bay pics, but that nappy looking alternator just jumps out and punches me in the ugly face!
Well ever since Bailey said something about my alternator, it pretty much bugged the s**t outta me.

So i searched and searched and found this ridiculously priced piece made in australia by xtreme rotaries



This thing is amazing quality...

Well i got all excited and put it together and didnt take a pic of it before hand but heres what it looked like in packaging.



Its an alternator relocation bracket that puts the alternator down on the side of the motor out of sight.

But im still gonna do something about that ugly alternator baily...

This may be a dumb question but couldn't you get your own alternator polished? Idk just a thought.

I dont have that kind of patience. I would rather buy a polished one or pay to have it polished lol...
