Default New wheels, need opinions on what to do next

Hey guys, I just got my new wheels and tires and I love them! They are off of an 05' and I got a great deal. I just bought some clear corners and am thinking about an HD grille with a black bowtie. Critics welcome.

Ya I only had pictures before and after the wheel swap, I plan to update again with the clear corners but I'm more or less giving you guys an opportunity to tear it apart so I know what looks good.

Well it had that funky little chin flap thing and I tore it off then I went back with a cut off wheel and trimmed some more.

I was thinking of putting some color matched door trim back on it. If you'll notice below the 1500 badge the paint is 2 different colors!!! I found that when I de trimmed the first time.

I don't know why, but I've always like longbeds. Looks good. As far as whats next, really depends on your style and the purpose of the truck. Maybe some color matching.

I would say some more agressive tires and a HD front end.
