    This past weekend I dipped my front and rear bumpers that were chrome. The black looks good but now I am 2nd guessing that I should dipped white. What is everyone's opinion? My wheels come in Wednesday

    I've seen both black and white; I believe both options look good. If you plan to get rid of the chrome on the grill, I'm sure the way you have it now will look better than what you think it looks like now.

    the bumpers look good. Color match the grill surround and to the BHLM to your headlights and it'll look better ;)

    Both look good. I think body matched bumper and ends look sportier because it gives the illusion the body is closer to the ground. Whereas all black is more off-road look like it sustains dirt/debris better. Either works on a truck and is complemented by the wheels. Big rims = sporty. Small rims + chunky tire = off-road. And mix/match is ok too, rules meant to be broken. As long as you’re happy with the look.

    I like color matched best.... How about white bumper corners and black center? I also think the black is looking good

    Story of my life... always looking for something else to add/do to my truck. You may have convinced me to paint my rear bumper black now ...
