I have a couple paint options I've been throwing around. This is my 07 Lariat with stock chrome bumpers, black door handles and mirrors. I have black 22 inch Rockstars and would like to match some parts in the flat black also. I'm going to do a 2/4 drop and want a clean not overdone look. Please tell me what you think...

1) Flat black bumpers, flat black grille, flat black running boards with white door handles and mirrors

2) White bumpers, flat black handles, flat black grille, flat black mirrors and flat black running boards

3) White bumpers, white handles, white mirrors, flat black grille and flat black running boards

 

the third one

 

Either 2 or three. Black bumpers won't look clean on your truck IMO

 

#3

 

I figured number 3 would be the popular one. Has anyone seen this combination before? I know the color match is pretty common but not the flat black.

 

3 imo

 

3!

(stupid message too short)

 

sampson01 has a nice white and black theme truck going

 

#3 for sure

 

#3-are you going to do the whole mirror or just the cap? and lose the running boards. thats my thoughts.

 

I say #2, only thing I would do different is instead of just a flat black mirror, paint the top cap of your mirror white.

 

Thanks for the post IORf150, I like the spin you put on it.

 

Thanks for the tip I will check it out.

 

No problem man, I'm about to get my chrome bumpers painted blue, handles will be blue, and top cap of my mirror will be blue.

 

I thought if I went with white I would just do the cap, but then I would be left with the factory black on the bottom of the mirrors and flat black on the running boards and grille. I want everything to sync together so maybe I'll do white caps with flat black bottoms to tie everything together. As for removing the running boards it depends how the 2/4 drop comes out. I don’t want to wear my leather out sliding in and out with no boards. Time will tell!
