I think the black trim would look good on yours but it'll be even harder to keep clean. I'll post another pic so you can see the tan trim better.
Exhaust looks familiar mines there too lol

Sanded a few spots under my truck with a wire wheel on my air grinder and primed with rust treatment then sprayed the whole undercarriage with 3M underbody spray. Definitely the best undercoat I've found so far.

You have to leave surface rust. Well I never owned a car or truck without it. My friend got his frame 100 clean, sprayed it with water, left it for a few days. He put Por on it and it was still there 12 years later. ????

If you did it right and read the directions it would have told you that you need to use the metal prep first...
