    Went with the nightshade because I loved the blacked out look all around.

    Did some basics, tinted windows, After market 20x9 with 275/55/20. Going to put a level on the front to take our the forward lean.

    Looking to upgrade bumpers next. But I'm having issues finding one that works with the limited. Everyone says they don't fit or work with limited. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Bumpers will fit, you’ll just have to do some cutting and possibly inactivate the ACC sensors and remove the sonar in the back.

    Congratulations on the new ride. You probably have one of the last Night Shade editions. Hope you are enjoying!

    You might be able to go to Xpel website and type in zip code.

    a place by me quoted me $2,000 just do the front end and mirrors. They told me it would have to be removed after 6 years most likely and Redone.

    Congratulations. Beautiful..!!

    I had 275/55R20 for a short time but didn't like the smaller side wall. Got 285/70/R17 with stock TRD Offroad wheels. It matched mine because mines Silver and not Nightshade. Black TRD Pro 17in wheels would match nightshade but they are not recommended to run wide tires like 285 since TRD Pro wheels are skinnier than TRD Offroad wheels, you could go 275/70R17.

    I'd be interested to see Limited with parking sonar swapping to regular bumper. I've never seen anyone with parking sonar doing it.

    new wheels and tires today installed. Sits very flush, and has a much more aggressive stance. Even with a +1 offset.

    Looks good! I too went 275 55 nitto grapplers on 20x9 wheels with my ‘21 nightshade. Got the 2/1 rough country leveling kit to keep xreas until it craps out. Perfect for what I use the truck for…no complaints at all with the ride.

    Hey fellow Nightshade owners! Got the same exact one, but Goddamn I like them modest mods you did. Nothing over the top, but the right inspiration for what I'm planning for mine. Quick question for anyone here: I'm looking to get some NFab Nerf Bars but anyone thinking that's a good idea? I don't like the default factory boards. Dunno if someone was pondering the same thing?
