Are those Line-x'ed bumpers? I'd look into painting the fender badges next.

I'm not entirely in love with the mismatch black on the front. Add some fender flares in that same black and match the lower bumper and it'll be looking really sharp. Overall though I think you're on the right path cause it's starting to look aggressive.

WTF is going on with this truck?! Why is your Ford emblem rainbow colored and why are you headlights utterly blacked out?

I get the concept, but I think blacking out the headlights and tail lights like that is just plain silly. Also, get all blacks to match (ie bumper).

On the upside, I have always loved those wheels.

I think the rainbow color is just from the way the light is hitting it. I'll have to agree with the too many different shades of black in the front. Why is the front emblem the only one blacked out though?

You need to either replace the headlights or gloss them, it looks like you painted them with a regular can of spray paint. Can you even see anything with them?
