Decided on going all in and getting the ATAK. It's pretty loud but I'm happy with it.

I'm trying to decide if I want to paint the tips black to match but it's going to take a lot for me to sand Borla chrome...

Love the truck, I can't decide if I want to do the ATAK or S-Type. I think painting them black goes with the look of the truck... I with the ATAK and S-Type could be routed out the side of truck, like the look of the better.

Well you should probably try and listen to the ATAK in person before making your decision. At high end rpms it breaks into a deep crackle sound (think of nascar sound). Almost everyone I know loves it but I have a few buddies who actually dislike it a great deal because of that sound. Just fyi

Beautiful truck! Where did you get your the black FX4 bed decals?

What's the offset on your wheels? Do you have any rubbing with the 35's?

I've bought almost all my parts (including decals) from stage 3 motor sports. I think Amazon sells them though.

Offset is 35mm. I did trim some of the plastic in front of the tires a bit with I first put them on. There were times when I'd hear it rub if I hit a rock or something while offroad but only if the wheel was completely turned. After a few months the tires wore down some and I've not had it happen since.
