thanks night runner , there's a black chrome grill on ebay motors for $45.00 shipped http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/05-07...QQcmdZViewItemi vote black chrome, i think it would look good on your nightrunner.(cool truck by the way) my tip is a modified stailess dual outlet tip. i tried exhaust(dynomax),did not like drone in the cab,and felt a little power loss. the rear mud guards came from the dealership $45.00 ,they come just black plastic, i had them and my grill shell painted for $50.00 .

the fire&icelight bar(stylin concept.com $80.00)was not to bad to install, the resistor is for the brightness on the running lights only. with the tail light covers they were to bright. i do like the fire&ice bar and like you ,i wanted the reverse led to. they help out a little bit to light up behind you.(and it looks cool) you can plug it in or hard wire it in (you do have to wire itin to the reverse light), there are no blinker issues with the LED bar. it comes with tape to mount it , but i used some90 degree brackets and stainless screws. now the grill, you have totake out your grill, the speed grill mounts with these stupid clips so i mounted mine flush with the back of the grill shell with small cable ties (you can't see them,and they work great) no cutting,drilling or bolting. man i think the black chrome speed grill and tail light covers would look tight on your night runner. i'll get some pics up. thanks for the pic info.

here's it mounted with (3) 90 degree brackets and screws. this is tailgate down. it's close but does't hit anything. i tried to tuck it under the bottom of the tailgate lip so not to be seen during the day until it comes on. i watch my mirror and brake it really gets peoples attention.
