Yep, very happy with the Putco stuff!

The fender trim is actually stainless steel... is not Putco... think it is TFP...

I just installed my first product from Putco also. I got the smoked cab clearance light covers from them and they really look nice. I'll get some pics today and add to my "album" since I cannot post pics yet.

Ok.. got some miles on the new BFGs...

They ride nice... not quite as smooth as the Contis... I would say they are pretty quiet... road noise may have increased a bit... but not much. I haven't really driven with the windows down yet though.... (I have had the driver's down). My MPG did appear to take a pretty good hit though... Oh, well! But dang, these tires look so good on the truck! LOL! Very happy with my purchase so far!

Has anybody taken off that lower plastic rock shield yet? I am curious to know how much of a difference it makes in the overall appearance.
