I'm not a huge fan of blacked out, but you did it very well. Nice looking truck. Question - I thought the Lariat Sport came with factory quad LED headlights?

The factory headlights that come with the sport appearance package are blacked out halogen. I think the 2020 now has led with the sport package.

Here’s the original lights that came on mine

Ah ok, I didn't know 2019 was different from 2020.

Truck looks awesome DarkSmoke! Question for you on your wheels as I'm going through a similar decision now for my magnetic color truck....The Fuel Rebel 8 is made in an anthracite (gray) finish as well as the bronze you went with. I love how the bronze isn't the same and adds a bit of contrast, while at the same time I think the anthracite would also go well. I might be afraid of the anthracite being a bit too drab though, although I think in person the wheels are pretty nice to look at no matter which color. Did you consider the anthracite color to go with your magnetic paint, or get a chance to put one up next to the truck to compare/contrast the two? What factors helped you decide?
