Good idea! The only thing that looks a little off to me is that the front would have a black bumper but the rest of the trim on the lower is brown. I think if the lower trim was black to match the bumper that would look super awesome. That said, with it being a winch bumper in its future life, it would likely look great (especially with the wheels done too). What are you thinking of going with for a winch bumper?
Ditto. The only chrome I have on my truck is the badging and the trim and a small bit on the wheels. Thinking of debadging the rear and using plastidip on all the trim.

You truck looks good the way it is. I would only black it out if you could black the entire thing out.
My friend has a completely blacked out excursion. EVERYTHING is black.
His truck looks good but with a red stripe, it would be the A-Team van.
I like the way yours looks as is.

I like your photoshop work, & I agree with everyone else, black out the trim.
Use photoshop to see what it would look like.

i will be building the winch bumper from scratch, and yes them harley lights will be Nice forsure.. i dont now about the lower cladding, maybe i will make it black, I could also replace the running boards with home made steel nerfbars that mimic them some to keep the lights in them but would be allot stonger for a side impact.
I want to keep the truck the red it is for a while, then later might go with a dark gunmetal grey that is almost black.
