Sorry....call me the odd one out...but Im a massive fan of the silver/grey caps. They create a point of focus that sets off the size of the tires and provides a nice contrast with the rest of the truck, makes it look mean in a refined way. Im looking at an 06...exact same model and I gonna leave the caps on and get black wheels. The truck is silver though, so maybe that helps me. I think it makes it look like a dang rig.

I'd paint the rockers the same color as the rest of the truck dump the front bumper and put on some wheels that are not black.

I'm old school and just like a clean look.

I agree. The bumper is staying for sure and Im leaning toward the black rockers (bed liner) for protection and black wheels for the sake of them not showing brake dust. Plus it will all match the rear bumper when it gets there and the headache rack and tool box.

Good to see the boat still lets you get on DTR. You know what my vote is, black wheels with black caps and rockers. I did my rockers on the F-250 with the Herculiner kit and it came out real well for the price but its a mess to deal with and takes a good amount of time to prep and do it right. It also didnt wear too well and I wound up having to go over it with another gallon after about a year and use. I would front the cash for the Line-X on a truck as nice as yours.

These are the black headlights and tail lights that I have the tails are L.E.D. Recon units, they add a different look.

I don't have a close up because I am not in the same country as my truck, but here are the stock SRT-10 lights installed. there is one model that fits all the trucks with that body style. I personally like the headlight style better than the projector style for our trucks, and settled for these in favor of blacked out ones. $120 on ebay.

I Custom built it based on a Kc Hi-lite one but for two lights and at a lower angle so the lights restrict cooling as little as possible and it only cost $40 to make.
