Leather on the shift **** would be nice if what I see in the pictures are correct.
The gear shift is leather on the Platinum but I'm not sure about the color matching of the leather dash mats between the two trim levels.

That's a beautiful truck. IMO, the best looking stock NBS I've seen so far.

Nice truck. If you don't have a front license plate, you might want to pick up a lower grill.

Okay, I will. I just wish it would warm up. I've done four of my own trucks and like the look.

I agree with the chrome. That is why I'm going with stainless steel. Just kidding. Anyway, different strokes, right? As for the falling off, it's all about preparation. If done right, they only come off with a pair if vice grips an a whole lot of prep solvent to remove the tape.

I love mine... I am seeing more and more of them. It was of my criteria for a truck when I bought it.

I have a SCrew with a short bed and I love it but I will have to say that I also love the look of the 6.5' ones. They make for a beautiful truck and I am sure it helps out a lot on moving day.

Thank you for the comment. I will post some more pics soon. Windows tinted today and HellBent spacer kit arrived yesterday. Got to find time to get that installed and will get some more pictures.

MarkY, is that lower grill a Ford piece? I started to remove my lic. plate holder off the front on Sunday and did not want to leave that big hole there.

No, I purchased it from http://www.autoanything.com/billet-g...0A3263574.aspx

Took about 15 minutes to install.

MarkY,

Which finish did you go with on yours? I see there are three different ones.

I went with the black. I have a Platinum truck that has the satin finish grill and I didn't think either of the other ones would match.
