Thanks man! I have like 40 hours in those flares and corner guards. Lol it's ridiculous but they turned out pretty good. Bad thing is I'm not done yet I just got tired of working on them so I plasti dipped the thing and I'll finish up the body work and do actual paint in a couple months. I still have a lot of other stuff to get done to get it on the road so I'm gonna focus on that cuz I want to drive it around and see what the local cops think

Didn't like the fenders but now that they're white I think they look good.

I was thinking black inside the big bars on the grill so it wasn't so much white. Also had to modify the plate diff cover i had some steering clearance issues

that is a lot of white. I'd be leaning more toward all black grill and black headlight trim, black sideview mirrors. it's not that the all white looks bad, it just looks a little unfinished to me. like it's primered and waiting for base coat

love the color of the front axle and steering. such a nice change from all black.. or people that use lime green. I'm thinking cleaning mine down to bare steal and clear coating it with black diff covers. yours is pretty close to what I'm going for, glad to confirm I've got good taste too! lol
