Leave the bumper but peel the grille, the Red looked much better IMO

I would leave the bumper coated, but definitely peel the grille surround.

Yea bumper looks great but the grille is a little overboard. now if you were to do the rest of the truck it would be a different story

I wouldn't do the whole thing, a guy in town just dipped his whole truck and it's super uneven
