Lifted Truck Accessories That Turn Heads at Shows
If you want your lifted truck to steal the spotlight at truck shows, it’s not just about height – it’s about the details. From forged wheels to custom lighting, the right accessories can elevate your build from average to award-worthy. Here’s a breakdown of must-have lifted truck accessories that always grab attention at events across the country.
1. Forged Wheels That Make a Statement
Nothing catches eyes like a set of deep-lip forged wheels. Whether you’re rocking 24x14s or 26x16s, KG1 Forged wheels are designed to deliver aggressive stance and unmatched style. Available in custom finishes, cuts, and designs, they’re the #1 upgrade for truck show builds.
2. Custom Powder-Coated Suspension
When you’re lifted, people look underneath so don’t leave your suspension bare. Powder-coated control arms, coilovers, and crossmembers in bold colors like candy red, gloss black, or teal are show stoppers. Pair it with a high-clearance lift kit for serious wow factor.
3. Underglow & Rock Lights
Lighting can make or break your night-time presence. RGB underglow kits and rock lights highlight your wheel wells, suspension, and ground clearance. Bonus: They also help showcase your forged wheels and clean frame during late-night meets.
4. Custom Grilles & Headlights
A flashy grille or a unique LED headlight setup adds personality and sets your truck apart. Mesh grilles with LED backlighting or color-matched housings can transform the front end and make your truck pop from every angle.
5. Color-Matched Accents
Matching tow hooks, emblems, calipers, and interior trim shows attention to detail. These small touches tie your entire build together and show judges (and fans) that you went the extra mile.
6. Big Tires with Bold Sidewalls
Tires matter, especially with wide wheels. Choose aggressive tread patterns and large sidewalls with white-lettering or custom tire paint to complete the look. Popular setups include 35×13.50 or 37×13.50 wrapped around 24-inch forged wheels.
7. Audio Systems That Shake the Lot
From custom-built enclosures to door panel speakers and bed-mounted sub setups, a sound system that booms adds energy to your build. Many show trucks feature full audio displays that double as entertainment for crowds.
8. Wheel Lights & Spinners
Spinning center caps or LED wheel ring lights bring even more attention to your wheels. When your rims are the highlight (especially KG1 Forged), lighting them up is always a crowd-pleaser.
