Default More decisions???

Ok, more opinions....

I bought the tailight covers back in Sept. Not the good ones from Mopar, but the cheap Ebay ones. I could not decide on the color. Sunburst Orange to match, or the Silver (same as the grill) to contrast???? I dropped them off at the painter on Friday, he needs an answer.

What about the Vent Visors for all four side windows? I usually put them on all my trucks, not sure if this is too much?

Which light covers? I have the Vtech ones painted to match on mine but with your contrasting scheme the silver might look real good. As for vent visors go with in-channel ones, they look so much cleaner than the ones that stick on above the windows.

The covers are the Vtech ones. I already made up my mind months ago to do it in silver, then the painter talked me into Orange on Friday. He said give him an answer by today, so silver it will be. Funny too. He has left over orange for a touch up on the front bumper (dealer is an idiot). Cost to paint $50. If I want silver he has to GO BUY the paint. Cost to paint $35.00. ????

I am not a huge fan of the tailight covers, but If I was going to paint mine, I would try to match it best to the color that surrounds the headlights. I guess is silver? Can't tell well from the picture.

Silver and I also say yes to the vent visors. I think they will blend in with your windows and not be too much.
