I added the 4 white raptor style lights behind a Larait grill. Under a hundred bucks. Added a 19" light bar to fill the hole...$36 off Amazon/ebay. Bug deflector was around $80. Gator tri fold Tannou cover was around $200. Tinting windows to match an the visor was $140. Borla muffler was $80 an $120 installation.

Looks great! I have adaptive cruise module where your light bar is. What did the Borla do for you (sound, mpg, hp, torque)? My pref would be sound.

Trial and error. Once you start, one mod leads to another mod that requires changing out your first mod and upgrading the last mod you did. There’s no perfect formula but lift and tires is always where I would start. After you’ve got an idea with the build you think you are after, your lift and tires will be outdated and you’ll start thinking about replacing that with something else. By then a new truck will come out and you’ll move on to that. Just have fun with it and make it your own. Everyone’s an expert on these forums so just pick what works best for you. Learn what you need and move on.

There's a reduction in the exhaust flow tube inside the factory muffler. It sounds a little better but not much difference. There's tons of sound clips in the forum of different exhausts. I didn't get much of an increase because I kept the factory resonator pipe after the muffler. A lot of guys just replace the muffler with a straight pipe. The turbo takes a lot of volume off the exhaust an the resonator does too.

The very first thing I did was add some back window decals. I also added a stainless steel tip to hide of the ugly factory pipe.
