need some advice on what route to go, just looks off sometimes to me with just the bumper being chrome. My options A-powdercoat bumper black to blend in better, also rear bumper B-linex bumpers to match the bed and nfab steps C-billet grille inserts to add a bit of chrome aluminum look up front to tie it in better D-leave her alone, she looks damn perfect!! Was gonna go the black wheel route, but gonna leave the wheels stock. Thinkin either i will just leave the bumpers chrome or try some aluminum billet inserts in the grille. Just curious if u guys think it looks off with everything black besides the bumper

I also vote C. Get the T-Rex or similar close bar style billet. Best style IMO. It had that 'custom' look to it. I don't care for the factory 'billet' insert. (No offense)

A. And you could plasti dip the rims, and take it off when you get tired of black rims.

Thanks for the advice guys, thinkin i might check out different grille insert options this weekend. Have been wanting to powdercoat the bumpers for a while now, but have just been too lazy to take them off and have it done. If i change the inserts to chrome i think it would tie in nicely with the bumpers/wheels if i decide to leave them chrome

I'm thinking powdercoat the bumpers. I am actually debating the same thing and am not sure what I want to do as I am in the same predicament as you

BLACK IT OUT!! if you want you can go pick up a can or two of plasti-dip and test it out to see if you like it and then just peel it off if you dont like it or go get it powdercoated.
