    I like red accents. I think it will look good. I have seen a few on this site that have done it.

    @Jach2008 I am curious to see some picks of your painted gray (dove gray?) truck. Maybe post some after you are done with the hooks.

    Looks great, have you taken it offroading with those red hooks? I want to do the same, but worry they'll chip after a few heavy trails
