please forgive the electrical tape liscence plate mount. For the ocassion i decided to freshen up the front end. i added a coat of paint to the headlights and grill as well as blacked out the blue oval. Im trying to decide what to do with my corners. i have other things that i would like spend money on besides clear corners right now.

I was thinking either niteshade them real dark or bust em open to paint the inside black. im leaning towards the latter because i could do it after class. i know to paint around the lip black, but do yall think it would look better to paint it all black or leave the reflectors chrome?

I have the same truck. Same Edge decal color and all. I think the bluish/green decal is on the Oxford White only.
