Re: Sporty looking body kits....
Search for front spoiler on the forum, I've seen some posts and links to companies still selling them. I need to get one as well, so let me know if you find it

Re: Sporty looking body kits....
There really was a Testarossa kit made although I've only ever seen them on the 92-99 Duallys. They were somewhat popular on that bodystyle dually around here. There is still one running around with one of those kits on it I see from time to time, the whole truck screams early 90's.
here is a site with pictures of these kits: www.showcars-bodyparts.com scroll down to the bottom of the page and there are pics of a ford and a chevy dually with these kits. Jeff Lee Last edited by J Lee; 11-19-2012 at 10:31 PM. |

Re: Sporty looking body kits....
Just order the biggest air dam/valence thing from LMC. I think it's a 5", mine sits pretty low, I scrape it all the time. And yes those are zip-ties I sewed it back together with, my little brother pulled to close to a curb and broke it.

Re: Sporty looking body kits....
Body kits on these trucks will REALLY date the look of it. Ground effects are a late 80's and 90's thing. Ive personally never seen any that actually look right on these trucks. But thats just my opinion.

Re: Sporty looking body kits....
There are no sporty looking body kits for anything, they are all terrible!
Didn't the Sport or the Street Coupe come with some kind of front spoiler looking thing that didn't look so bad? |
