yeah, it would look much better if he continued the two-tone theme by painting the bottom rocker panels black too and maybe even get some black fender flares.

Looks pretty good. DSG and black go very well together.

nice.

do you know what back space your wheels have ? 4.5"?

do you have any better pics shot down the side of the truck to show how far the wheels stick out ? that first one is so dark.
thanks.

It really make the bumpers stand out, which is not good. I would carry the black all the way around the bottom of the truck or go all one color.

Have to agree, you need to two tone the bottom half there as well. Maybe a good coating of rhino or line-x to armor the bottom.

Looks good. Going with a two-tone would make it look even better.
