Default To continue black out, or leave it?

I know at the end of the day it's my truck and I need to do what I think looks best..but right now I'm torn. A few months ago I partially blacked out my grill, this weekend I did the bumpers. Now I'm trying to decide if I should go full black out. As it sits, I think the chrome bars on the grill compliment the emblems and handles. Although, I've always been a fan of all black. Any opinions? Thanks!

I think a full blackout grille and blacked out emblems would look killer on that rig.

Well here is the grille blacked out and no chrome on the sides.

I say it looks good as is. You have a small amount of chrome throughout.

I'd say you're good where you're at now!

With the chrome handles, emblems, details on the rims I do truly think you have a good balance of accents on your truck which make it stand out from the pack. A full black out is good I suppose, but it's a brute force approach which can be borish...there's something to be said about a little finesse. Thus, ergo, Henseforth, and forthwith, to me you got yourself a less is more scenario. I think your truck looks bangin' the way she is.

i like it, but not the grille. with it being partially blacked out the bars look tiny and out of place, at least to me.
