Default Debadged and Tinted

Well I finally got around to debadging the truck since the snow is finally gone. I used the old heat gun and some 3M adhesive remover. I also had the windows tinted a few days after I got the truck.
Here are some before:




And here is the after:

The gate looks better but the side looks really naked now!! All that white needs some pop or something.

Is that tint or did they paint over your windows? ***** DARK, can you even see at night?

Looks sharp, Its amazing how much of a difference a few badges make. but too much white for me, I'd turn it into a two-tone.

Yeah I think that the reason the door looks so naked is because it is at factory ride height, as soon as I drop it I think it won't look as big and open.

It is just the pictures that make it look dark because the side tint is only 20% but the back window is 5%.
