Now here is where i need the help,

-Get factory caps and PTM with black bed rails, or stainless?
-Stainless caps with black rails?
-Powder coat Front and rear bumpers? Just rear?
-Its getting 09-10 badges off another XLT, do i get the fender badges for the fenders or just get two other tailgate emblems and put those on the fenders?

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

 

Pc front and rear bumpers,
clear heads and fogs
stock bed caps and rear window trim painted black
black wheels
black emblems
04-08 badges (or 09+) with patriot decals inlays and overlays

keeps going but you get the point haha

 

I think it looks real good how it sits....but thats my opinion and usually that doesn't matter anyway

 

IMO you should have left the chrome trim on it...Looks naked now...but like ice-cable said, our opinions don't much matter, it's your truck.

 

I like it better without the chrome, just a little bit like the grille and bumpers look good, clear heads and fogs would look good too, keep the bed rails black

 

Thank you for all the input everyone!

Now a questions :

- Where can i get factory replacement caps? mine look like Swiss cheese


And I know you guys think your opinions dont much matter, but they do.

 

Get rid of the visor IMHO!

 

All black truck with clear heads and chrome wheels is the sexiest look you can get. I would get the bumpers powdercoated, lightning heads and CLEAR corners, clear fogs, black grille, and blacked out badges. Your on a great start having the rocker panels painted black.

 

x2... IDNC's is the perfect example. That will be next next direction my my future truck... only lifted tho.. best of both worlds

 

Lose the visor and put that darn tool box back on there!

 

IMO...and thats all it is... Chrome trim stuff is ugly, good job taking that off! Tint your windows 5% all around! Take the sun visor thing off plz. Tinted head/tailight covers. IMO...and its just mine...Don't get fender flares, they rarely look good or add anything to the appearance of the truck! You have to be lifted pretty high and have gigantic tires for them to even look half normal! IMO...stainless or black bed caps/rails both look like crap. Old mens stuff. You could powder coat the bumpers that'd be cool. 09-10 emblems/stickers wouldn't look right on the older trucks...not that they look right on the current trucks either tho....IMO. lol If your gonna keep those wheels def paint them black for sure imo. If you wanna do something for performance, put ya some LT's on high flows and do a CAI or the gotts mod. Get a programmer.
Good Luck

 

Looks much better without the chrome on the rocker panels.
It looks a lot like my old black 97.
