YES thats what I'd do too.
 
And I just want to say I do NOT like that truck. I hate lowered trucks, not a fan of the wheels, that dark green color is SOOOO overused, and oh yeah REALLY sick of the clear taillight thing. My friend's dad's new Honda Pilot has that! From the factory! Ugh just awful and ricey and bland.

2.5" Duals, no cats, Flowmaster 40s, Richmond 3.73s w/ Trac-Lok, maxed out Baumann shift kit, 3000 RPM Dirty Dog non-lock TC
Aside from the Mustang crinkle headers, still looks like it's only 150 HP...

Lift it up and put some 14's on it, then it'll be presentable.

that is the dumbest thing i have ever heard in my life. so what, it's bagged and body dropped, that makes it no less of a lightening.. and the last i checked, there's nothing 'ricey' about a lightening no matter what you do to it!;)

I know where you could get a 4 lug car for the conversion too. Maybe even throw in a three speed on the tree.

Some people need to look up the meaning of 'ricey'. The clears on the Lightning are factory too.

no, i mean the taillights. just the taillights. "ALTEZZAS YO!!!!!" i almost hate the word "altezza" at this point. i just see them EVERYWHERE and to me lights shoud have COLOR. same way i feel about clear-corners (turn signals) besides the government says youre supposed to have amber turn signals anyway follow the rules dammit!
