Thanks Tun2One... I appreciate it man!

I love the B-pillars... on the fence post about the handles. If the truck was solid black, I think it'd be perfect but, with the AZ Beige accent, I wonder if the chrome and beige contrast eachother in an odd way.

I assume that the handles (not the buckets) are plastic chrome? I wonder what it'd take to paint them and have them be durable enough to last? Give it that black on black look...

Again, thanks for the pics. Your truck looks very very good! Honestly, I think I like the look of the black boards on your truck (being that it's black) more than the AZ Beige boards... Nice work man!!

i wonder what deep copper handles would look like on mine.

Well the pictures don't really do justice (but maybe it's because I've already paid for them ). The chrome really goes nicely with the chrome on the wheels, headlights, and front grill. However, I could see where painting the handles would look good also. I'm happy with the look and I think the pillars and buckets\handles in glossy black are a must on a black color. As I said, I'm getting the mirrors painted soon and I will post picks when they are done. If you can find the time and right person to paint your handles/buckets (like your tailgate RP), that would be a good way to go in any color.

Ahh, my tailgate handle...

While it looks okay from a distance, if you're standing very near it, it's a disappointment honestly.

This is why I don't want to attempt to paint my handles on my own.
