    I agree, its all about personal preference. I like the contrast with the white lettering and since I clean my truck regularly I don't mind cleaning them. But there are alot of rigs on here that look great with the black out while the white out look would just clash with the scheme. Whatever makes you happy I guess

    Yeah I agree with the personal preference I've just always had white and was wanting a few opinions. But I do clean my truck about once a month but never the tires so I'm going with black and see how it'll look.

    Looks good. Can I ask a stupid question? How did you attach those fog lights on top of the bumper? Did you just drill into the bumper?

    Yeah I just drill but I drilled in one of the bumper supports so it was a solid mount not just plastic. I can take some pictures later if you want?

    It was pretty easy to drill just keep in mind that the grill is curved so they have to be out a bit. The silver bolt is the mounting bolt

    ^ This.

    I dig the BTTF/Marty McFly white-letter-out look. Good thing, too, as it's MY truck, and maybe that's a symptom of my (somewhat older) generation. And when that lettering gets chunks taken out of it, dingy and dirty, it'll be like the rest of the truck--battle-damaged and proud of it! ;)
