Not sure if its been said or not, but painted plastic in white, never matches...
It may for a while, but over time will fade and not match.
Just my .02, id leave it as is, just add a sport bumper. To me the mirrors/door handles work well with the black wheels...

if you use the right paint it wont fade or not match......


pics coming soon I painted it it last night and let it dry all day today...should have pics Monday/Tuesday of it installed.



BTW I just went with the white Laramie/sport bumper no white mirrors or door handles.
thanks to all who helped me decide...paint is cheap when you spray it your self, so If I decide to paint it later I will and can for under 40 bucks
thanks for participating in the poll

I was just going off all the factory white paint jobs Ive seen/see at work everyday... Funny, 90% of them are chrysler cars, but the door handles/bumpers/etc never match after a little time in the sun. Maybe its just bad prep/paint from the factory...
Im sure using a good primer and good paint will deffinantly be a step up from the factory paint jobs though.

Looking foward to the pics
