Is your truck boring and lifeless? Does it lack character? If you answered yes to any of these questions than you need to trick your truck. You will probably not need to go as far as Pimp My Ride with their extreme colors and toys but some hot new accessories will definitely spice things up a bit and maybe breathe some life back into your love life.
One of the first things that people notice when you drive up is the grill. There are many different types of grills and grill guards available. They vary in size, design, and material. You will want to base your decision on two primary things. First the type of vehicle and second what you use your vehicle for. If you have a smaller truck, you will probably want a smaller grill guard. On the other hand, if you drive a lifted Ford Super Duty, a massive grill guard will make your truck that much more intimidating. As far as materials go, grill guards are primarily made of steel and various blends of rubber. You can also choose to have additional accessories added to your grill guard such as lights, shackles, winches and d-rings.
The second thing that people are going to notice, especially when you are driving down the road is the tires and rims. You can set yourself up with some custom truck wheels pretty easily by visiting most auto parts stores. What people are really going to notice are the rims. Depending on the size of your truck you will want either 20″ rims or 26″ rims. These also vary in style and in material. You can consult your local auto parts dealer for the best type material for your area. For example if you live in a real rainy climate, you may want to consider aluminum alloy rims because they are the best at preventing rust; however, they are easily damaged if you spend much time off-roading.
These are just a couple ideas to get you started. There are many more accessories that will prove not only stylish but practical and useful as you embark on this journey of tricking your truck .
