wheels look great, love the truck in general wit the two-tone

one tiny little suggestion i would make, i think it would finish the truck very nicely if you got that strip on the lower gate painted the gray to finish the body line... one thing i never understood GM not doing from the factory?? guess cause of gate resale... i dunno

thanks guys! I really appreciate all the comments!
beastmode...already gotcha covered...
show mods current to do list:
install white door handles w/ chrome pulls that came w/ the tailgate handle (installed that one already because it was so easy to do)
paint and install SS front bumper cover (same as lower)
remove rear bumper...paint and install SS roll pan (same as lower)
paint strip at bottom of tailgate (same as lower)
I've had this stuff for a couple years now and never had enough motivation to get them on before these wheels...
Oh...and sprayed-in bedliner...haven't decided on over-the-rail or not yet...
I guess I'm gonna have to paint the rotor hubs and calipers now too since you can see them...probably the same gray...

TOP TEN REASONS I PROCRASTINATE:
