Default White and tan truck upgrade ideas?

I'm looking into doing a little more to my truck before I fully start focusing on motor work. What are you guys with white and tan trucks doing to them? After market or custom, I'm open to anything. I like the color matched but I don't wanna have too much white. I'll attach a picture of mine. First ones when I got it. 2nd one is a couple months ago and the last ones it now.

take off the chrome covers for everything, get some 09+ emblems, PTM them white with tan inside, and possible PTM tan the grille surround

I've been planning on PTM the door handles and mirrors for a while. Getting tow mirrors around Christmas so I figured I'd wait and get it all painted at once. I'm stuck between white headlights or all chrome.

I agree with FX2 with the PTM grille surround. Could offset the chrome up front pretty nice. Not sure what the rest of your truck's set up is, but a nice exhaust always sets it off for me. With chrome tips & all.

I got true duals ran at 45s behind the back tires with 3.5"x22"s about to run new tips sometime in the next couple weeks though. Can't decide between Denali tips, knock off Denali tips that are just ovals or some 5"x22"s. I want to kinda white it out though but I don't want too much white.

This is before I put the bull bar, racks and smoked tail lights on and took the 4x4 stickers off.

I personally liked the second pic of your truck, including the wheels, minus all the stick on chrome accents

Those rims are long gone. I wish some times I would of kept them but I went from 18s and 285s to 20s and 35s which is a rim/tire set up I've always wanted.

I definitely like the factory 20s. Those are my favorite factory ford wheels! I would definitely get some if I could afford 20 inch tires lol anyways I like your idea of painting the headlights white I think itd be pretty unique. I also agree with the other members on the tan grill surround and ptm door handles. all that stuff would look great! maybe some ptm extended fender flares too.
