I like body colored gas caps. Looks to ricer for me. It just doesn't serve a purpose or look good in my eyes.
The rest looks clean. i like the two tone paint and it's what i have.
Wheels are little flashy for the scheme IMO. I'd go with a Black Chrome look.

All right, due to everyone agreeing. I think the gas cap will stay blue.

AFter getting everything done, I will decide if I'm going to leave the rims chrome or powdercoat them black. Most likely will be leaving chrome though due to the wive's imput.

Leaving it up to a women to tell you what looks good?

You think about raising the black up about half way so it looks like full 2-tone instead of factory trim? I thought about doing it on mine. Black bottom and red top.

Kinda like this except black/blue:

I dont think the painted gas cap would look bad but thats only if you also paint the grill black and then black out the tail lights and head lights maybe. Thats what I pretty much did with my truck and I like it. Although my truck is a darker color then yours so the black gas cap doesnt pop out as much as yours does.

You can kinda see in this picture, its the only pic ive got with the front and gas cap both showing. Kinda hard to tell but you can get the idea.

All right, I had another chop done and I think this will complete the look.

The lights are being done tonight, rims and tires on thursday, and from there I need to find doors so I can get everything painted.

I agree somewhat. I think it would look better with black wheels instead since your are doing black trim and black nerf bars.
