Question Suggestions of what next (w/ current pics)

Looking for suggestions of what to do next. Current mods are listed in my signature (I will be getting a Line-X spray in bed liner soon). I like my color scheme but I feel as though it limits me to what might look good to do next compared to a solid color. Please provide ideas or comment, open to all ideas...

I don't have any suggestions, but I think your looks great. What size and and brand are those tires? I am looking for my next tires since the stock ones on my truck have almost had it.

Agree with previous posters. Truck looks great already. Only thing I would do is fix the dent on the bumper. lol, I just had to do mine, same looking dent but on the passenger side! Otherwise, nice truck!

I got an idea tht would be pretty unique. Powdercoat your steps to match the tan lower portion of the truck. Tan steps with black step pads would look great
IMO

Don't do anything. It looks great. Don't ugly it up. Too many people go overboard and ruin otherwise nice, tasteful trucks.

+1.

A free mod that comes to mind is removing the dealer sticker on the tail gate.

Yea, planning on getting that fixed, its not too bad so I have been putting that off.

Yea I agree, thats why I am cautious as to what to do, if anything.

Normally it would be gone, but that dealership did me so good, I did not mind leaving it on there. However now that you said something about it, it will probably start to annoy me and I will take it off.

The door handles would look good blue, if I did Harley Tails I would think I would need to paint headlights black too....not sure how that would look?

Other things I have considered:
Putting some driving lights behind the grille
Adding a Magnaflow siso exhaust
CAI
Custom tunes

However none of those really change the look of the truck, but thats ok. I like it how it is, just looking for any ideas I have not yet thought of. Keep the thoughts coming, thanks again.
