Looks great!! I would think about putting in some wheelhouse liners. You would think it was standard on a Laramie. It is on my limited.
Thanks. Didn't really give them much thought until I saw the picture and now I need to get some. Add it to the list I guess.

I go to work at 5 AM so I have been using them the last few days. So far so good, they are working great, they really light up the road. Way better than the factory bulbs. $55 for all four bulbs for the high and low beams I thought they were worth a try.
Wow - Can't beat the price

Well I finally finished my ARH longtube install.... Was definitely a pain in my behind but done nonetheless lol.
So you had the procharger on with factory manifolds before, or did you just change header brands?

Added custom bed LEDs couple weeks ago. Pulled 12V from the trailer harness and added a simple rocker switch into the plastic panel where the bed extender hardware mounts. Really happy with it for ~$15.

Picked up my 2021 rebel this morning! Started out with a strip wash followed by claying. Will be polishing and then applying Adam’s graphene coating tomorrow and then Bakflip MX4 and AMP power steps on Friday

Any reason you're going with bakflip mx4 vs a retractable like peragon retractable tonneau covers? Where'd you purchase the AMP power steps from?

I like the way the bakflip is closer to flush with the top of the bed and I’m not a fan of the retractable covers. I ordered the amp power steps off Amazon

I have the BakFlip F1 and I'm very happy with it.

$15 bucks! Do you mind sharing more details like what brand and where did you get it.

Sure thing. Below is the amazon link for the LEDs. ~$12. Simple rocker switch was a couple bucks and I had the wire and heat shrink in my junk drawer. So maybe $20-25 total if you had to buy everything. The LEDs have a 3M type backing tape and you can cut them every few inches and solder leads to them. I heat shrinked each cut connection to keep them “water resistant.” I have a Bakflip MX4 so I ran one strip from side to side on the bottom of the fixed front of the cover and one strip down each silver rail. Takes some soldering skills and hopefully the LEDs last but if not... it was $15

You’ll love the AMP steps.. I pulled my set off my 14 before I traded it in, hoping they’re similar to the 5th gen ones besides the wiring I can get them to work. Xmas time when I’m back in the states I’ll get a new set ordered and compare parts.

Yes I do have soldering experience and I have MX4 too. I’ll give it a try. Thanks for the info!

Yeah I had the factory manifolds on with my Procharger for over a year now.
Interesting. I've been thinking about supercharging, never considered doing it with the stock manifolds. I would think with the long tubes that beast will feel more responsive.

Finally got around to debadging the rear end and adding my blacked out tailgate Ram’s head (with a little added flair)
