The fender flares will be the same black. Black on top of the hood? Cool but wouldn't be seen much unless you're inside the truck. Right now I have Nitto Grapplers and Bilstein 5100's on the short list, so that should help the looks a bit.

When I bought my truck I bought silver because with the salt and everything up here thought it would be easier to keep looking clean. It was the only truck on the lot with the options I wanted and I had just sold my only mode of transportation and needed to get something to drive to work and back so I got it. Love the truck but if I could go back I would of gotten black or blue. Anyways to break it up I put new wheels on it and I think it helps a lot, Id like to do the harley heads and tails too.

I'm a huge fan of silver trucks/cars. I like it just the way it is. pinstripes, even as thin as they are, would stand out a bit on the silver and look nice.
One you get those Grapplers and Bilstiens on it will look great.

Just my thoughts.

I love the look of my silver FX2....looks clean and solid. No butt ugly chrome, matching door handles and removed equally tacky looking FX decal. Nice smooth exterior.
