Black will definitely match your truck.

I'd go with black. I have the black ones (except on DSG truck).

Man I wish I could do those mirrors on my Screw...sadly Ford dropped the ball on that one by making the SCREW mirrors different.

I love the mirrors. I can see almost all the way around the truck. Ya, Idk why they decided to make them different. Kinda dumb to me.

Will I get any kind of vision gain when I switch? I buffed these at one point and had them looking good and didn't really see an improvement in performance, just looks.

Black and paint your grill guard black. It would make a huge difference.

Lots more light because it's an aimed beam with a clear lens.
