Default Color Matching Opinons.

I have a 05 Dark Charcoal Grey RC with Black 22 inch American Racing RT-S wheels. I'm in the process of color matching my door handles, tailgate, front bumper, rear bumper, lower valence, and tail gate cover. I also plan on tinting the tails, 3rd brake light, and slightly tinting the headlights.

I needed opinions on what color I should do them. Should I color match everything the color of the truck or black?

I was thinking about doing everything black, including the chrome portion of the bumper to go with the blacked out look. Then color match the grill shell charcoal grey and paint the bowtie black to kind of set it off.

Please give me your input and include anything I may of forgot.

Thanks

id go with the body color FOR SURE. on a side note is your tailgate cap actually paintable (ex. SS cap) or is the stock one Silverado one? if its the stock one i wouldnt paint it... the paint will chip off no matter how much you sand and scuff in NO time... just a suggestion though. Id bite the bullet and get an actual paintable cap like so, better than getting your stocker painted and realizin after it chips that you need one like this
