Nice. Looks good. Now do one without the black bumpers, rockers, and flares. I bet you get a lot of people liking that look as well, white with black wheels looks great, along with the black heads, grille, and tinted tails. Many have done that look.

Like this... Tint the windows, remove the 4x4, and paint the mirror caps

Maybe even some PTM handles

Thanks for all the comments so far. I am still not sure what to do. The main thing is that IMO, on a truck, I hate chrome. This is why I originally started thinking about painting the bumpers, grill surround, badges and blacked out headlights. I started thinking that just Black bumpers and badges would be good with the black wheels and I would leave everything else alone. Then I started thinking about continuing the black line from the black bumpers all the way across the truck, but did not want to do the flares. Now I am leaning back the other way a bit. What would you guys think about this:

Remove 4x4 Logo
Black out and smoke Headlights
Smoke Tailights
Replace grey'ish honeycomb grill with black honeycomb grill
PTM Grill surround
PTM Badges (leave lettering black)
PTM Bumpers or Satin Black PC bumpers

Still planning to paint rear inner fender well and get XD Misfits (black) and 325/60R18 Terra Grapplers

Sounds like a good plan... I'd recommend PTM your mirror caps and the rest of the stuff and I think it'll look Sick

I am thinking that I like this look above anything else I have tried so far. As JackedUp99 said, the Oxford White is a nice color and it would be a pitty to cover any of it up. Since I just want to get rid of the chrome and make everything Black and Oxford White, I am thinking this this is the best option. Let me know what you think of this concept.

If your set on black bumpers and rockers the flares look better painted. If you go PTM oxford white, do the mirror caps, bumpers, handles with black rims, tails and heads. IMO since you already have a Lariat PTM is the way to go, the other way just looks like an XL, no offense to XL owners.
