    I like the black better as well. I can’t recall when exactly but there was a discussion on here where someone had a link to those bumper caps in black and they were fairly cheap. A few guys swapped them out if I recall correctly. Best of luck to you.

    Checked out your build thread... insanely phenomenal! Great work on really making this thing functional and performance. One thing you didn't list on there was the shocks, unless those are stock; which would be odd considering everything else upgraded.

    For those of you who have had the quicksand for a while now, how does it hold up to scratches and dirt compared to white? I live on a dirt road in the high desert and take short cuts on dirt roads to work. My driving is 80% dirt 50+mph so desert pin striping and chips/scratches are inevitable.

    It's the best color for not showing dirt and scratches.

    I have had silver colored vehicles for years since that seemed the best against scratches and dirt. I have the QS....it’s even better.

    “Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder..”
    True.
    I have had 8 strangers come up to me in parking lots, gas stations, to comment/compliment on my truck specifically the color..... never had that before.
