I would defiantly paint the mirrors and bumper cap.
I dont know if you like them but some people really like 03+ tails. Maybe taking off the badges.
Sweet truck by the way!

anyway, Your truck looks good. I am a fan of the lean and mean look....debadge, and if it unbolts, unbolt it...but it's your truck. Painting the mirrors is one of my personal favorite mods, also the 03+ chevy tails, great ideas.

Im thinking of doing the color matching and debadging, the nerf bars will probably stay just because it stops door dings from all these nice people in Connecticut, anyone have pics of my color truck with the molding off? one day down the road Ill get a cowl hood but Im sure you guys can relate, the truck fund isnt too big anymore

Debage, remove molding, color match mirror caps & handles. I like the nerf bars...they look good and are functional. I don't know why so many here have such an adverse reaction to them. Just throwing this out there, what if while color matching stuff, color match the nerf bars? Just an idea.
