I would go with silver to pickup the silver of the tanks and steps. You wouldn't be waiting on some lights, would you Should have yours completed this weekend

I have a ??? for you- why does everyone make their front bumper so close to the ground? On a 1:1 if the bumper was 14" off of the ground that would make a model's 1" in scale yet everyone wants their bumper within a 1/4" of the ground. Makes for a very picky truck to drive around. You have to watch for every little obstacle in front of your truck.

Just goes to show how cool you can make a truck look with stock kh length. I really like this one. Great looking grille, any more info on it?
My truck's bumper is only going to be a hair's breadth off the ground. I guess some people don't like that. That's ok, if everyone made their trucks the same, this place would be boring. I think it looks mean never mind the impracticalities

Looking great as usual Jon, I say black pinstripe to tie the cab into the black frame. Maybe if you wanted to be really ballsy you could try the black pinstripe outlined by the silver??? Just a thought. I'll be watching LOL.
