    Need opinions/ideas!

    I am about to send my truck into the paint/body shop to get all the dents fixed and a pearl white paint job done. I am keeping the black bed rails and toolbox on it afterwards. I think I want to keep the mirrors black too as they go with the look, I am about 75% on color matching the grill and keeping the inserts black; I am replacing the front bumper with another chrome one, probably a smooth diesel one without impact strip, but I'm open to opinions on that as well as what to do with door handles. Any other suggestions/opinions are appreciated. Heres a pic of what it currently looks like and if anyone wants to do a little photoshopping I would appreciate it!

    I think your direction sounds good.

    I would keep the door handles black, to match the subtle black that you will have with the mirrors, etc. The white grille will actually look nice - but I would def keep the inserts black. It will tie in with the other blk pieces you have. I would keep the black lower body molding as well and that will tie it all together nicely.

    I know a lot of folks are into debadging, customization, etc. but if you just want a good lookin' truck your plan sounds perfect.

    Sounds good. I never liked painted to match door handles, grill and grill inserts, and mirrors on a white truck! Just too much. Sounds like you've got a clean idea. Stick with that!
