im liking the black on everything but it would look nice with ptm bumpers but black on everything else. I just painted my headlights black on the inside and it came out really nice I would give that a shot its cheap to do. Another sweet thing to do would be to do your badges and emblems using the patriot decals. Just some thoughts.

Do you have a 6.5' bed??

I agree, go with the PTM bumpers but black your emblems and get the inlays. also it might look good if you paint your tails like i did mine but order a spray can touch up paint from a paintscratch.com

If you getting rid of the chrome your going to have to get rid of all of it. Running boards and all. It would be easier and I think IMO change out your brush gaurd to chrome. I know it's adding more but black is more of an offset color with your trucks color.

And you should look into a chin for your front bumper.

PTM bumpers always look great and the contrast with the black will enhance your truck...
