Looks nice, man. I personally would remove the pin striping to further enhance the black paint with the black accent wheels.

If you bought it from a dealer, chances are that they installed them to accent the truck. That is a going theme these days at dealerships. If they installed them, they should just pull right off. Worst case scenario, use a hair dryer and a long fingernail. Any left over glue will come off with WD40 on a rag.

will you be able to see a difference in the paint shades where that has covered and protected the paint or no?

No. I had to remove them off my 1997 Dodge Avenger that were put on there when the car was only 2 years old. 6 years later when I tried to remove them, it was hard but they came off and after two waxes, couldn't tell they were there.

They put them on my truck about a week before I bought it and the first thing I did when I got it home even before taking pictures was take them off. The truck is new enough were you wont see a difference.
