Basic truck, added stock air, added air con to new spid ... Ok?
Basic truck, added everything to make it a Cheyenne Super, added to spid ... Ok?
Where would you draw the line?

Add options to your heart's content. I'm adding a expansion tank and moldings to an "original" build. May even change the color or color scheme. As for manipulating a SPID, probably not OK. I thought about doing the same, but I won't. You could do that, but that should be disclosed if sold. That and the truck would be misrepresented long after you're gone.
I should add, your truck came with a build sheet. Though most wouldn't know or care to look, it's more valuable than a SPID. There's no changing a build sheet. Changing a SPID is just misrepresentation, IMO.
