I'm probably going to leave the rims chrome for now, the emblems, tool box and step bars should help make that stick out a bit I guess

The plan you have seems like a good one. If it was me, I would leave the mirrors black. Blue color matched mirrors just don't sounds like they would look right for some reason.

Alright, here's what I got so far; Painted: grille, front/back bumpers, door handles, stock gas plate will be going back on and tailgate handle painted blue.

Window: mirror covers come off and rain guards go on

Sounds like a good deal to me

Gonna go talk with my neighbor in a few and let him know what I want to have done and see how much he will charge.

I think both ways would look great, But you are the one who has to drive it. I myself like chrome. I also like the D-badge look. Every body knows the dodge truck when they see one, It just gives a more clean look. Good luck with your project. I'm doing my new one myself, and I know what kind of headach it can be.
