Strokes new look!

Ditched the stack...And bought a tonneau cover. Not sure if i like the cover or not. Its on the inside of the bed rails and sticks up an inch. But hey its 520$ new and bought it used in great shape for 100. Cant complain! Next is maroon 4X4 decals. What do you guys think?


Ohh yea...And the new plates!!

haha thanks guys. The tonneau is a soft cover. Kinda weird. But hey it was cheap. And the maroon 4x4 decals look kinda good IMO, Id keep the silver ones but they are all weather cracked up close..And look awful! I HAVE to get rid of that rear bumper. I want the stock chrome one. Pulled this from the internet. YOu guys dont like the maroon?? And what about paintin my grill inserts to match my white? Like in the pic.

Talking

I like your truck a lot, and about the grill I would paint the inserts in black color instead of white or the stock gray. IMHO

BTW I like maroon.
