I like the stockers better. Sorry, not a fan of Xd's.

But if you like 'em, that's all that matters!

thanks man haha sweet some one that thinks like me. the rockers will be pulled off when i start doing paint and body work on it. ive been thinking off rhino lining the rockers and painting the truck charcoal grey but havent made my mind up yet. (plus i have to finish my moms 69 c10 first so i can have shop space) i didnt even thing of painting the door handles, but i am going to get the hd mirrors and they will be color matched too.

Looks good. I like the whole truck to be chrome but thats me. Those covers dont look bad but if you take them off, keep the chrome molding. You could also colormatch the fender flares and buy some chrome handles.

Chrome on a red truck looks goood
