Default Want to change front end apperence...what do you think?

Current:



I'm thinking of painting the entire center of the hood black ( i know there are some trucks around here that have the center painted black, and want it to come down to the grill.) I know you guys know what im talking about i wish i could find a picture of it.

I'm thinking blacks the only way to go, silver would clash to much?

2 cents please...

I've seen a couple of F150's done like that, they looked pretty good. I have always wondered what a GMT800 would look like with it. You've got a really nice looking truck as is but I can understand wanting a little change.

I would add a black Street scene speed grille if you do any thing.

Looks awesome as is.

Its hard to leave stuff alone, i know.

your truck looks great the way it is, just color match the mirror caps.
