Truck still looks good man!
GOOD!
But, save up a hundred or so, and go get your handles & mirror caps PTM, it really makes a nice difference . I don't know whether to buy textured handles and PTM them or have my stockers painted and the chrome grab handles left ( Mark LT/Platinum style ).
I am one of those guys that would. I hate chrome. But I 'deal and learn to deal with it . That is, until I have the funds to get this done, which I am half way there at the moment..
GOOD!

I think if you get new handles you should PTM the buckets and leave the handle chrome, like in your second pic.
I don't want anything that's going to involve wiring I think my next investment is going to be 18x9 XD Monster 778 with +18 offset and GoodYear Duratrac's in a 295/65/18 or 33x12.5 Toyos, I can't decide.

Oh, I know, .... two F-150s, two T-Birds, a Merc GM, a Forester, and only my '77 F150 has a chrome bumper on it. It's been painted several times and I hope it has another paint job soon, but that's 1977 Chrome still on the front bumper.
These newer style trucks with bumpers blended in so smoothly look great either way, but Chrome is still more durable .... as long as it doesn't flake / peel / fall off that is.
My '07 would look "OK" with Chrome bumpers, but it certainly looks better with the color matched DSGrey.
Newer bumpers seem thinner, I guess y'all sand blast the chrome off or ..... ???
Looks good silhoueted against the chrome too!
