Added bullets to my grille

added some bullets to my grille....not sure they go good with the white, Im thinking of painting the white black to make the chrome stand out.

Like the bullets, did you incorporate the eyebrows on the top of the headlight buckets?

The white with the bullets looks cool. I would leave it.

You're painting the truck orange right? If so I'd like to see the grill semi-gloss black.

Nice touch Keith, I would paint the grille the same color as the body...there's lots of brightwork around the grille to set it off, much of which gets lost in the white.
