Default Which GRILLE

So I'm trying to justify spending 1800$ on a HD bumper.

Any votes on a specific grille style and or color? (Black white)

Green truck: Classic
White: Baja
Superduty: Outback

I will either get the bumper in white or black then buy WARN 4x flares to color match the Calypso green on my truck or in white aswell not sure yet. The bumper will just be the grille guard, bumper and two hole pockets in the bumper.

So..

Which one? And what color?

Picture of my truck:

I'll also probably have to get an add-a-leaf so that my front end doesn't get killed.



my truck only has 140,000 kms on it so I figured no shame investing because it's got plenty of life and rust free.

Out of those I think the classic looks best on these trucks.

I like the bumper portions of them, but the brush guard section is lacking,
not a fan of them being bolt on, but if I had to choose, it would be the classic.
I like the outback, but it wouldnt looks as good on an OBS

You guys think it would look better without a grille piece? That was my original idea and id save money. Furthermore. White or black on my truck?

i think it would look better without honestly,

if you go white which would look good, you'll need to color match your flares to the truck, in either color you want.

if you do black you can save more cash by leaving the flares black,

but to even out the truck you'll want to paint the rear bumper too, no matter what color bumper you get.

I just think if i et black and leave the flares black there will be too much color going on. I figured the rocker panels would keep the rear bumper alright. I could be wrong though. Facebooks taking lead with the Baha bar but i didnt give a no guard option. Truck but youre a hue help atm. Thanks for the good response. No one with ps was helping so im kind of winging this

your right looking at your truck again the three colors might be a little much. I would go with the white

to bad you dont live near saint louis, there is a shop there that does chrome painting,yes paint. and for a bumper like that it would run about 700 to paint it though. now that would be bad ***.
