1. The Grille is an upgrade for the Lariat Supercrew available from Ford. I think it was about 325.00
2. The vent is non functional. I got those in 2008 off this forum from a guy that wrecked his SCREW.
3. I've not found any covers for the folding part of the miror from any company but would be interested to know if they exist.
4. Pics of the rear. Today.
5. Where to get a black Ford Emblem?

3 - Just take the mirrors off and spray paint them chrome. Isnt that possible? Or take those pieces to a chrome shop.
5 - You could customize the emblems you have or there are places that does customized emblems like this one (http://webxtremes.com/fordblackoutemblems.htm). I think that one with 'Ford' in it would look great!

You can get the OEM 1/2 mirror covers from the dealership for $65 each. I looked into getting them for the Lariat I used to have. The hole mirror being chromed looks kinda odd.
My opinion (since you asked
)-
I LOVE the black and chrome look and those wheels being chrome looks great.
1) Ditch the gas door cover.
2) Ditch the rocker panel chrome.
3) Ditch the lower tail gate chrome.
3) Ditch the side door handle surrounds... leave the pulls chrome.
4) Ditch the tailgate hanle chrome all together.
5) Ditch the chrome bug sheild.
6) Keep the vent. (I love that thing)
I really dig the black and chrome look and LOVE those wheels and tail lights on it. I'm usually not even a fan of the chrome billet grilles, but for some reason, it works on your truck. Chrome is something that has to ride a very fine line on the way newer vehicles look. IMHO, their body lines and dimensions usually dont lend themselves well to being chromed out.
Again, this is simply my opinion. Take it with a grain of salt.

THe wheels are the high polished aluminum 6 spoke Ford wheels that came on it. I did the wheel exchange with a company in California called calchrome. Here's the link:
