the first picture is how it sits now, and second was with stock rims and obviously before the steps / tonneau cover, and the third is before all the chrome accessories







now, i just ordered a 2.5" leveling kit and the problem is i am completely undecided where i want to go from here, if i take off all the chrome accessories and leave the black rims, which i've debated, i'm afraid of what the double sided tape will leave me with. secondly, i'm not sure how all blacked out will look with a chrome grill / bumpers. i really like chrome rims so i could leave all the accessories on and just get the chrome rims i like (looking at the kmx diesels or badlands in a 20"). the problem is i need tires ASAP, now the rims i have will only allow for a 33" tire because of the backspacing, so i was considering going to stock rims with a 35" until i get the chrome, and with the winters in new england i wont run chrome in the winter anyway so it'd buy me more time, any input would be great, and be honest..... thanks in advance

(odds are the current rims will probably be for sale when i'm eligible to post in classifieds)

 

I'm not a fan of chrome, so I say black out as much chrome as possible. It's personal preference though.

 

Third picture looks best to me.

 

I'd go the chrome route(maybe remove the chrome window panels IMO). I think it's a cleaner look. I do really like some of the badder blacked out rigs I've seen on this site but around where I come from it seems like every 16 year old tries to (and does a poor job) blacking out their car/truck, kinda left a bad taste in my mouth. Just my $.02, nice truck though!

 

i think i like that one the best too, those were roush racing rims i scored cheap off a buddy but they were starting to peel around the center caps so i got rid of them...


its funny that you say that about the chrome pillars.... that seems to be what im hearing the most...


this is my buddy's 2011, bad *** truck, only thing i dont like about it is the chrome grill / bumpers with the black, and i dont think i want to change them to black..

 

If you want the black out look, then lose the added chrome which takes you back to the 3rd picture but keep the new black wheels.

 

Double post!

 

Third pic looks the best by far. Chrome looks good when done right but when overdone it really makes things look tacky

 

 

Remove the chrome window panels and never look back!! other than that whichever way you want to go will look good.
