    Default Need some feedback

    Alright I got some pics of the truck at the bottom so you can kind of look and imagine what I want to do. Maybe if someone is bored and good at photoshop they could throw me a bone? I'm trying to go with blue and black and eliminate the chrome pieces. So I'm thinking

    1. Smoke out tail lights and head lights with HID headlights
    2. Completely debadge and remove trim
    3. Replace silver mirror covers with black ones
    4. Matte black wheels with some 33's and a torsion key lift in the front to clear them

    The only think I'm iffy on is debadging and the trim. The truck is 9 years old and I'm thinking the paint under the decals is gonna be sparkly new and stick out against the worn paint around it. And I'm not gonna repaint the whole truck that's for damn sure.

    I already got a silver billet grille. I like the style but I'm not sure that it would look good in black. What you all think, keep it silver or get a black one?

    Last thing, I'm prolly gonna paint the bow tie, black or blue?

    #4 sounds good! I just did that with my 2002 silverado, but i just tightened the torsion bars. Since you dont have mud flaps they wont rub on stock height.
