I think it will turn out good with the hood painted and the chrome gone off the bumper.

RGV or not. I know we might not all see eye to eye with them guys, but it looks good imo.. It is diff.. You do not see any trucks up this way like that.. I can go to any truck show , see silvys all painted the same color, with a SS clip..

I like the look of it. theres really no trucks in my area with that kinda paint job so i figured why not. I think it will look tough.

Oh nothing against the RGV guys... I just thought his truck looked better before than most of the ones I have seen done like that. But to each his own

There is a reason people use the SS clip.

I like the way it looks. Great work. I been debating on painted the Billet grilles black on my truck. I just dont want to ruin the bottom one in my keystone bumper cuz it was 150$
