Off-Road suspension package
Red brake calipers
Exclusive ultra silver metallic exterior color
Body colored grille
Exclusive hood decal
Fender Flare Extensions
16 x 17.5-in aluminum wheels
Cloth interior
Rocker panel protection
Under-body shield
Black Brush guard

Optional equipment shown:
Wide-spoke chrome wheels
Sunroof
Roof marker lamps
Chrome fuel door
Chrome appearance package

Very nice!!! I like the color and the "no chrome" features. The body color seems to go well with the lower front underbumper (or whatever it's called).

Congrats.

Looks good! Enjoy the v-8!

Yes, it does match reasonably well. If the truck was any other color, I'd probably have to have that part painted black (like on the '06 and '07). It just looks a bit odd to me on other color trucks.


312 miles and counting....

What brand fender flares are those? I like them!

Were they easy to install?

The Championship edition comes form the factory that way. Here is a couple links to some aftermarket companies that make them.

I think the CE could have bushwhackers since they are same color dunno tho.

Yes, it came that way. Odd, since it isn't even an option on other models, I guess that does make it a bit special.

I'm not sure if it is one of the options from the aftermarket guys. Does look more like the bushwackers, but the webpage says those are paintable matte black, these are textured more like the bumpers.

I do like the EG models with the splash guards, had OEM splash guards on both of my previous trucks. They really help keep the sides clean. Haven't had this one out in mud or rain, so I don't know if the flares help out.
