Here's a side & back view. I know the changes are small but I think the black is way better looking and the way these trucks should have come from Ford. Just my opinion though. :)

I like the look of your Tires. Mind telling me what they are and what wheels you are running?

What is the finish, looks like satin?
I have been wanting to paint the grill black for some time, the only thing stopping me is that I worry it will look like shit with paint chips. What ever Ford painted the grill with it seems to deflect paint chips unlike the rest of the body color paint.

Thank you very much. The wheels are 20x9 BMF REPRs in matte black & the tires are 35" Nitto Terra Grapplers.

The body shop says it's trim black but in a satin finish just to give it a little shine. He was trying match the finish on my wheels. I love the way it came out & we'll have to wait & see on the grill getting all chipped up. He says that the new flex agents that are added in when painting plastic/rubber are very good & quite flexible & that the grill should be just fine.

I'm really loving the new headlights. They totally change the whole look of the front end now.
