Very nice, that's how the Joe Gibbs trucks should have looked from the factory. The only thing I'd suggest is clear corners for the headlights/turnsignals.

Personally I would stick with the gibbs rims, they look good on there. If you are thinking about doing anything with the emblems, just take them off. And don't smoke the whole headlight, it will decrease visibility and not look great IMO. Just smoke the reflectors. This is just my .02 though so do whatever pleases you.

X2^ I was thinking the same, blacked out head lights going to take originality look of the truck, amber reflectors smoked would look clean.

Having owned one with that front end and the same drop I know that the bumper cover will hit EVERYWHERE.....and the brackets underneath will break.

ouch! party foul...

You should see my bumper since I did the springs, its all sorts of ground up now and that tear in the center got worse. Give you reason to park like an *** hole in 2 spots and hanging half way out tho haha
