Ok I could do all of that....
[b]AFE Intake:[b]
It looks great under the hood of the truck.

The intake tube is quite a bit smaller than the tube coming off the turbo so you have to really tighten down on it. Makes the turbos a lot louder and the truck is more responsive, not that much difference in fuel mileage

Rancho 9000s:
They are real easy to install. I left my shock boots off, the shock boots look too old school for me. I have the front set on "7" and the rear set on "5" other wise its a little too bouncy. I am a little worried that the 5" exhaust might hit under extreme flex, but I don't know yet.
.
Recon Lights:
I have the smoked cab lights and smoked LED fender lights. Cab lights are real easy to install just a simple screw with the cab lights. The fender lights won't be that bad to install but it was difficult to get my arm behind the inner fender cover to get to the back of the light to take out the stock bulb, I cut myself a couple times. I ordered the LED mirror lights, they should be here soon.

5" Magnaflow w/ 6" tip:

This was the source behind the madness of the mess I went through trying to get around regen mode. I had to cut the stock exhaust to get it over the axle and out. It was a little difficult getting all the pieces to slide in together because it was such a tight fit, but some patients and a lending hand it can be done!!! The exhaust clamps are a nice new designed clamp and so far are leak free. It does have the vents for regen and to keep the truck within warranty, but mine is far beyond that right now I have the muffler delete and even then, it was not much louder than stock, so if it is sound you are looking for then you need to straight pipe it

HIDs:
I have 12K HIDs which are the deepest color you can get on HID's. They are a deep blue/purple. I wanted to go more for the exotic look more than anything. If it is actual brighter light you are looking for then I would do the 6k or 8k. Install was simple, just a simple plug in harness, however, I was have some trouble mounting the converters. They need to have airflow to cool them off because they do get hot and need to be up high enough to stay out of the elements. I mounted them behind the headlights, there is room.

I guess thats it for now......any questions?
