The first pic is how the truck looked right after we got it. Nice, but not quite our style.
The following two pics are how it looks now. We replaced the TIS wheels (20x12 with -44 offset) with some XD wheels (20x9 with 0 offset), new headlights, removed the chrome off the door handles and gas filler door, new side steps, and some new floor mats. Just gotta re-tint the front windows and we should be done with the exterior. Also had a couple mufflers installed since it was LOUD. It's nice now. Just wanted to show it off a little!
This is how it looked after I removed the chrome off the gas filler door and three door handles. I ended up having to buy a new black handle for the driver's door and paint it.
Looks fantastic! You have achieved THE look I am after with my stock white EX. You have good taste! Would you mind sharing more details on the build, such as parts/product numbers, where you sourced them, and prices? I am particularly interested in procuring a white grille like yours. I also really love those wheels and tires, but I am having a difficult time finding true 'hub-centric' wheels in 18 or 20" diameter (most are lug-centric).
Thanks!
p.s. - I still have not started peeling off my chrome...hopefully this weekend.

Thanks for the kind words! I can help with some of your questions. The truck already had a 4” Rough Country lift when we got it. Same with the bumpers. I got the wheels from Discount Tire, they are XD-825Buck in size 20x9 with a 0 offset and I don’t know if they are hub-centric or not. We kept the tires that it came with as they only had about 1,000 miles on them. They are 35x12.50’s, Nitto Ridge Grapplers. I’ve never been a Nitto fan but figured I’d give them a shot. The steps are from N-Fab and I just got them online. I bought the headlights online also, and don’t have a clue what brand they are. They were fairly cheap and simple to install. I don’t remember any specific prices, except the wheels were a little over $1500 installed. It came with the white grill so I’m no help for you there. But I’ve thought about replacing it with a black one. If we go that route I can surely let you know. Any other questions, fire away!
If the lug nuts are tapered, then they are lug-centric. If they are flat faced, then hub-centric.
I really dislike my chrome grille and chrome bumpers. I was hoping to find a pre-painted white grille. At least there are a few options for front bumper replacements in black with integrated cow-puncher grille guards, but not sure about the rear bumper options.
