I'm "old school", as mjhoward puts it , so I like the chrome wheels w/ the 3x5 drop. The black just doesn't do it for me. Not even the partial black.

I would get Escy handles, de-badge it, and paint the bumper cover and air dam body color. I guess I missed something...what happened to the Gibbs cover?

I actually have to agree 100%, I think that bitch looks mean as hell just like it is, maybe just a little bit of paint matching.

On your color truck I'd say keep the chrome, but definitely do the 3/5 drop on that badboy.
