Everyone likes different stuff. Personally, I go with what I like since I'm the one making the payments and I have to look at it everyday......just my 2 cents.

Does anyone know if they make headlight and taillight covers any different colors besides black. . .
yeah i know i want to change it but i also want to leave it but i figure if i leave it bluei'll get the rims painted the same color they are now that way it still matches with the bottom part of the truck. . . But if i paint it black i'll have to buy black rims (b/c i want to) also another thing is i dont know what to do with head/taillights i really dont like the stock ones. and plus they stopped making the clear ones for the back (i wanted those) i havent found anyone with matching head/taillights it just doesnt flow. . .

I'm pretty sure you can buy clear head/tail light covers and paint them whatever color you want.

that a goos idea. . . plus im pretty sure it would be cheaper to keep the truck the same color and to paint the rims to match then it would to change the truck color and then get rims to mtach. I guess i'll have to talk to a body shop what do you guys think?

Ok well. . . I think i have come up with something pretty good. I'm going to leave the truck the same color which is dark blue with gray or silver along the bottom. Then im going to get head-tailight covers painted to match the dark blue, once i get the body kit, im going to tell the body shop to follow the original line seperating blue from silver, and tell them to make it around the whole truck. then last but not least i'll have more than likely either 18's or 20's painted to match the silver on the truck. . . what do you think ? ? ? ?
