Nice truck, a set of SS wheels and colormatching the front end would make it look a lot better imo.

Take the moldings and emblems off, and colormatch the mirror caps and handles. That would look good, too.

i was thinking about doing those things...ill have to order new handles and mirrors along with a top valance cause mine is the textured plastic

how hard is it to take the moldings and emblems off?

and does anyone know where i can get a set of ss wheels for pretty cheap?
or a set of 6 bolt 18s that would look good on there?

thanks for all the compliments

It's not hard to remove the trim molding & emblem's.......there are a couple of ways they can be removed,I used the following items,
.....some fishing line
.....heat gun
.....then I using a 3M Eraser wheel,to remove the leftover adhesive.
.....last a wash of the area's and then polish/wax

As far as SS wheels for a deal, a couple months ago I emailed factory reproductions on ebay and they said they were out of SS 20" chrome wheels but they were making more that should be available in a couple months so check with them maybe. I think they only want like a little less the 1K for a set of 4 chrome wheels. They have a set of flat black ones on ebay for 779 right now you could repaint silver or leave flat black. Just some options!
