if your gonna get 20's i say ditch the grille guard
 






i agree tehy dont belong on a lowered x.

but if ya wanna give the grill guard and tail light guards to me i will be more than happy to take them ;)
 






I agree with that. Also, if you're gonna remove/repaint the two tone trim on the doors, go ahead and paint the bumpers too and maybe the steps. Stock, the door 2-tone matches the lines of both bumpers. By removing that I actually think you're messing up the lines of the truck and the bumpers should match to restore those lines.
 






The 99-01 eddie bauers dont have that mid section, lower paneling painted right? im going for that look.

heck I'd paint the flares while you're at it. get rid of the two tone alltogether.

correct
 






i forgot to say that im on a tight budget ;)
 






that looks nice...u may in the long run want to get rid of the 2 tone thing though..w.o the stripe there is nothing conecting the trim and the body so they look outa place or...added on as an after thought

looks good though =)
 






id keep the guard. my freind has a newer x thats green on spinners with a grille guard/tailight guards, and everyone loves it.

MHO would be to paint the mirrors. Sell the Grill Guard. Lower the X and put those rims on. She would look great till you could afford to paint the whole vehicle. Either leave it 2 tone or re-paint the whole vehicle to a solid color. No 2 tones at all.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

On a budget? Sell the grille guards and buy an airdam. That's what I did.

HAHA :D


Sell what you can, then get rid of the tan on the doors, get the wheels and lower it. It would look pretty cool. Then it would be another $600 to get the flares painted at a later date. This is my idea of the order. I like monotone Explorers, so I hope to make mine like that someday.
 






i also want a 99-01 bumper on the front too..perhaps i will get rid of the grill guard...and get billets :DD
 






Make a roll pan, look real cool.
