Default Need to change things up. Need Help.

I need help deciding how I'm going to change up the look of my truck. I'm tired of the all black. Swap grill and bumpers for chrome or new wheels? After looking at the leveled and OEM wheel thread I'm considering 18" sport or Lariat wheels as there were some really good looking trucks on OEM's.

What would y'all do?

Instead of chrome what about colored accents to break up all the black. Just a thought.

I like the 18 sport rims I have. Also have a 2013 FX4 set of 18s I put updated sensors in.

Some 17" Raptor machined/black wheels would look good, either 1st or 2nd gen.

I did a little searching but couldn't find any local and I'm an impatient person. I did find these locally for stupid cheap. I think they'll give me the look I'm going for. Looking for the best price on 285/75/18 Toyo RT's now.

I was going to do gears next but so far the quotes I've received were almost 3k. Going to shelf that the next few months and focus on the suspension. Don't want a 4" lift and I want to get rid of the coil spacer. Will start researching coil overs next.

Yup. I'll either be real happy with it or hate it. If the latter I will probably go with a set of Method 305's or 309's.
