How much did the sierra moldings run you? They look good to me and keep form getting those nasty door dings.

The change is different and unique. Though I would have to vote on having the lower portion of the truck and fender flares painted white like the rest of the truck.
It would make your add ons stand out and look a lot better. IMO.
Still looks good. I honestly think the wheels are throwing the whole look out of place really. Get some chrome 17-18" wheels. Then I think the look will be awesome!

you paid $290 for those? Holy crap that is a rip off. People take those moldings off GMC's all the time and sell them for about 40-50 bucks shipped.
