Never underestimate the effects truck accessories play on the look of your F150 or Suburban. If you truly love your truck, the last thing you want is for it to look like everyone else. One of the best and inexpensive ways to change the overall look of your truck is through changing the grille. This can be done by adding billet and stainless wire mesh grilles. These exterior accessories add a unique look and style to your pickup truck or SUV.
A billet grill looks great whether you’re cruising down some back country roads or on the big city streets. They give your truck its own distinct, personalized look, setting it apart from the crowd. Billet grilles may be made of stainless steel, aluminum, or ABS plastic. Stainless steel billet grilles are very strong and they resist rust and corrosion.
Aluminum grilles are light yet sufficiently strong, and resist corrosion. Aluminum is a metal that can be very easily shaped into any design. ABS plastic grilles are very light, rigid, and durable. You have your choice of innovative billet grille styles ranging from tribal, patriotic, flame, Harley Davidson billet grilles and many more. Custom billet grills deliver the ultimate front-end appearance to your truck or SUV.
Installation of these grilles is not a difficult task, especially if you know your way around a truck. The majority of grilles simply bolt over the existing OE grille making installation is pretty quick and easy. Even in the instance that your particular vehicle application requires the removal of the existing grille in order to install the new one, it is not a difficult process. In most instances, you just cut the plastic brackets which used hold the OE grille and then fit the new grille in the truck. In either case you have to see that the fitting is done properly and the relevant instructions are followed.

A Pace Edwards Jack Rabbit retractable tonneau cover is both practical and stylish. It features an extremely functional aluminum slat construction, finished with padded vinyl layer giving it a refined finish and look. It’s retractable design makes opening and closing the cover a snap as it glides smoothly along black powder-coated side rails. The cover itself is stored in a canister at the front of the truck bed when you need access to the bed of the truck.
If you’re considering a tonneau cover for your pickup truck, here are five reasons to convince you to do it:
Privacy – The last thing you want to do is show everyone what you are hauling in the back of your truck. A Jack Rabbit retractable cover keeps your belongings private and out of sight.
Security – In these rough economic times, would-be thieves take every opportunity that comes their way. Don’t give a thief the chance to steal your tools or other belongings. A retractable tonneau cover is lockable and will prevent theft. A Jack Rabbit cover for your pickup bed will likely cause them to look elsewhere.
Better gas mileage – Every penny counts with gas prices on the rise. A retractable tonneau cover makes your pickup more aerodynamic, thus reducing wind resistance. Less wind resistance means it takes less energy and better gas mileage. This means savings see every time you pull up to the pump.
Safety – Not only do tonneaus keep your belongings safe from prying eyes and potential thieves, but also from items flying out of the back of your pickup truck as you’re driving down the road. That translates into the peace of mind.
Convenience – A retractable tonneau cover is the ultimate in convenience. Forget about tying down items in your truck bed and in some models, you don’t have to worry about inclement weather. While tonneau covers aren’t necessarily waterproof, they are water-resistant, which is enough to get you from point A to point B without worry.

In my opinion as a truck owner, tonneau covers are the perfect way to keep your belongings stored safely away from the weather and more importantly, envious eyes of thieves while you’re away from your pickup truck. While soft tonneau covers aren’t built for those who need every available inch of cargo space to haul things, they are a good choice for those truck owners who prefer to store small items in the bed of their truck. These truck covers also protect your cargo from blowing away in the wind as you’re driving down the highway.
In case you were wondering, there are basically two types of tonneau covers – hard covers and soft tonneau covers. Hard covers are best style to choose if you prefer extra security since they cannot be cut open like the soft style and they are lockable. The hard tonneau covers tend to cost a little more than their soft counterparts but the peace of mind knowing your cargo is safe is worth the extra money. Many truck owners get their covers painted to match the body color, with some even adding matching graphics. The only drawback is if you need extra vertical space in your bed frequently. They are not made for frequent removal and can be quite difficult to remove once installed.
If you own a pickup truck because you do haul cargo frequently, then your best bet is will be a soft truck cover, such as the Blackmax from Extang. These covers don’t offer near the same type of security as their hard body counterparts, but they are very convenient. They can easily be adjusted, added, and removed whenever the need arises. True, they are no where near as sturdy as a hard top, they can still hold their own in most weather conditions, even up to twelve inches of snow. Some covers are even strong enough to support the weight of two people standing on them.

You can’t just slap on a side step and call it done. Your truck or SUV not only has to work hard; it has to look good too. So ask yourself what type of look do you want in your truck? One way to accessorize your truck to make it look sharper but also much more functional is to add side steps and nerf bars. There is literally no end to the different truck nerf bars and steps on the market.
Nerf bars are available in oval or round steps, which give you more step area than the more traditional step bars. Truck nerf bars are the most popular truck accessories on the market can be found in either chrome, black powder coat and stainless steel. One reason for their popularity is the fact that most require no drilling for installation. Instead, they are mounted on the holes that already exist in the body or frames.
Nerf bars and truck steps are also purposeful in that they protect the doors and front fenders of your pickup truck from debris, tall rocks and other materials which can damage it as you make your way over rough conditions. Personally, I like nerf bars for the simply awesome look they bring. You’ll find there are basically two types of Nerf bars available – short, standard cab bars and the longer bars made for extended and quad cab trucks.
Short Nerf Bars – These bars or side steps end just behind the door of the cabin. The bars begin behind the front wheel and extend just to that position that it helps you to get in and out of the cab. They are mostly made of chromed steel, stainless steel or black powder coat with rubber insets for footpads.
Long Nerf Bars – These bars are popular among those who need who love to extend the bars to the position to front tip of end wheels. This enables not only to come in and out of the cabin, but also to get into bed of the truck easily. The long nerf bars thus provide style, assistance in getting into cab and into the bed of the truck!
