Opinions Needed!!!!

Alright guys its opinion time again. I just refreshed the front end of the beast. I used the, oh so sweet, Krylon Fusion paint and painted my grill black. Then my air damn looked crappy so painted it, not black but grey to kinda match my stripe dowm the rockers.....but I am not sure if I like the looks of the gray, or if black would have been better....so i need you guys to tell me what you think......as it sits gray or better in black?

The grey kinda looks out of place. Unfinished so to speak. Might want to black it all out.
however, It all depends on what look you want when you are done.

It's really up to you but since you asked... I vote to leave it. If you are going to get serious about the blackout thing then go for it otherwise it looks great the way it is.

Thats just it, I am not sure the look I wanna go for yet.....i have that silver stripe along the bottom and it just totally throws the color scheme out of wack! I may end up painting the stripe black, go all white and black.....just don't know yet.

i think the grey works with the truck. but you can always get the rockers and bumpers done with black bedliner and then paint the upper and lower valences black

You just read my mind Jake......I was thinkin about Line-x'ing all the gray and going with the black and white theme.......I think that may be the ticket.

If you look at pics of my truck before it had a the grey at the bottom and a pinstripe and I jus went to the start of the blue on the truck. It's easy to clean with a high pressure spray like at the car wash bay and mine ran me around 625 for the rockers light bar and bumpers. Mines also rhino lining since we don't have line x dealers around here

Looks okay, I might like it white better. I'd have to see a comparison, -before and after.


But Mann, bend that ****** hook back up right, -looks trashy.

I've got both, but I have always used line-x....does the rhino hold up very well. I have some buddies who have it in there beds and it looks pretty crappy. I know at least here rhino is cheaper.

I know this is probably a strecth but can anyone hook me up here. I have tried to do it myself but it looks aweful. Plus I have no image editing software so i am trying it in paint. Can someone edit one of those photos to show a white valance?
