Have you thought about line-xing your rocker panels? I think it would tie the front and rear bumpers together nicely.

Looks great! But where is a shot of the whole truck?

I am debating between painting my bumpers white (white truck), black line-x, or white line-x... what do you think?

crhaack: I have tought about rocker panels but not very convinced yet...I might even just linex the whole truck flat black

storm150: if you linex them on white I think it might look weird... I don't like the all white look so my advice to you is black linex... but everybody is different.

Shots of the whole truck coming soon as my camera is not here right now... but here's a couple of shots of the front bumper assembly.
