Honestly I like the way it looks now. I would just say Rims and engine upgrades. I wouldn't change the tails too dark unless your going to black out your truck. Just IMO.

I think he changed the handles to the chrome with keyless entry. One picture doesn't have it when another does. Honestly he's doing a good job not going overboard with the chrome. I'm not usually a big fan of chrome unless its for the rims but his truck I think is pulling it off.

This^, window tint, and maybe glossy b-pillars (might be more then you want to spend though)

Unless you are going for the blackout look dont nightshade or paint the headlights. You got a good mix of black and chrome right now. Maybe harley style the lights yourself if you want them darker.

i put the chrome handles on there. the rest of the handle is stock.

and yes i am going for the chrome/black mix but i deff dont want to overdo the chrome. i have a chrome bullbar, handles, rims, and bumpers.

i had thought about the pillars but i havent really got a chance to look into them much and didnt know how noticable they actually are? and the window tint, how dark should i go? how dark does it need to be before the cops start messing with people about it?

also i might sound like an idiot but what exactly are y'all reffering to when you say ptm?

Don't get the chrome pillars save yourself the money. that will definitely overdue the chrome. When I did my tint for my front windows I just matched the back which I think is 35%? Most cops won't mess with you unless your a total douche. but you might get a young buck that might pull you over for it. But as long as you have your windows rolled down before they come up to the truck you should be fine.(only because they feel safer) and if you don't have anything wrong with your license and your nice he will most likely let you off. But they won't gun for you having your windows tinted. I have a mocking license plate and they don't mess with me. BTW not trying to mock the cops I just know a lot it's an inside joke. Info for any cops on here.
