First, thanks for all the info from everyone on this site - helped me emensly when buying.
In an attempt to kill chrome I went full d bag with this aftermarket grille. But now I sorta like the way it looks... Should black out bumpers? Leave it? Opinions wanted.
PTM would look better. Then you'd be full Panda look (which done right is a nice look for white trucks, I think).
That grill though....I wouldn't normally say anything, it's your truck, but you did bring it up and well, subtle it isn't.
PTM bumper + mirror caps, maybe door handles too, with a black grill (maybe not that black grill) would look pretty nice I think, and the truck would definitely stand out. Especially combined with those wheels/lift.
Probably add some black fender flares now to protect your paint. As far as the grille, I think a black Lariat Sport grille would look much better and less gaudy.

"Subtle it isnt" lmao. Yeah paint would look best, I agree. Want a off-road bumper so not sure should spend the cash on paint. Maybe the back tho. Love the Storm trooper look me.

Hmm didn't think bout that. Tires prolly gonna kick up rocks and chip paint I imagine?

With those offsets? Yeah. And given it's white even regular dirt/mud that doesn't hurt the paint right way is going to spray back and show big time. For off-road I'd throw on flares.
If you are off-roading a black coated bumper would look good too or PTM and get clear film installed (though doing that just trades one expense for another, I think). One thing for sure is enough time off road is going to beat that chrome bumper to hell.
You've personalized your truck, made the way you want. Why would you listen to other peeps tell you to change it because they like something different?
I like it. It's different. Not like everyone else's. The only absolute I see are rear wheel well liners.
OP, I agree with idrive through and through on this one. Personally I think your truck looks badass, good mix of painted trims, black wheels and the chrome bumper which looks nice on light trucks. The grill is like matching your hat to your shoes, it works great in this instance.
Drive what you love, if you think it looks good then roll with it. I wouldn’t say the grill looks dbag, it works nicely with what you’re putting together.
