Painted grills

What do ya'll think?

 

Too much white IMO. Lower valance and inner grill bars being black is a much needed contrast, I think.

 

Its certainly different…but X2 on the need of black/white contrast

 

Would look great imo if you roll some flat black wheels, dark tinted windows, blacked out decals and maybe a black hood decal. Black with white ringed headlights would look wicked.

 

Great opinions. Thanks. Work in progress.

 

nice twist. i can appreciate it..

but.. like others.. i think it needs a bit of contrast.

 

Its cool to see something different though! I have to commend you on it! Keep us updated if you change it!

 

Remember to do what YOU want with YOUR truck. If you like the white, keep it. That being said... If it were my truck I would be big on the contrast theme we've got going here.

 

Looks great!

However, I too think it would look even better the inner bars on the upper and lower grill black for more contrast.

Then go crazy with some backlighting.

 

Looking again, I'd be curious to see it painted that way with non BHLM headlights, it'd be a cleaner look overall with the all white front end, but those black housings make everything look very white.

My last car had cleared headlight/taillight housings and it was Super White also, and it looked sexy as hell.

 

This is very true, I'd be very interested in seeing this front end w/o the black housings on the headlights. It's unique and could be very clean looking

 

Maybe also if you painted the vertical bars in the upper grill and left the cross bars white, and the valance grill mesh black. Never seen anybody do that before, I think thatd be a slick look with your BHLM housings.

 

^^^^ Yes, paint the vertical parts black leave the rest white.

I like the BHLM though. I wonder how a WHLM would look.


On second thought....the BHLM is too black...

 

We need a photoshopper

 

White out those headlight bezels and then do the tails like RearViewMirror did. His tail lights would look great on your truck.

Damn good idea, I love those.

 

Also paint all your windows white

 

Chrome housings are better than WHLM/WTLM..

 

mirror window tint would look nice as well

jokes, i see what your going for but i personally like the blacked out grill and lower valence look better. it makes a nice contrast.

 

6 inch white wall tires to match?
