So I got a deal on a Laramie sport bumper..but it is black and I need to paint it white to match my truck...but I have been thinking since I bought the paint and I am going to be spraying I might want to think about spraying my mirrors and door handles??
so here is a poll to get every body's opinion's on what looks best to help me decide.....

pic for reference....

The truck looks way too good the way it is ... I like the black door handles & mirrors.

I like the fender flares alot on the Megas... They extra lines/contours help tie the truck together, though, personally I'm not a big fan of them on the regular cabs & quads. Congrats on the new truck.

Just paint the handles and bumper!! But if your going to paint the handles you'll need to remove them!! They will turn out better!

No offense, but all white trucks look like chicks should be driving them. I'd paint the bumper and leave the rest black.

No Mark, not your truck, but trucks that have every little piece painted white to match. It just looks feminine to me.

My sister did that with her Chevy, only in red. She painted every black plastic part (door handles, mirrors, bumper trim, etc.) and it just looked like a chick truck, even with the 6" lift and mudders.
