I had not realized how much the painted grill would make a difference. I have been very specific in the color choices for the truck and one of the big reasons for switching to the black California plates was because they matched the color scheme better. I know weird but the old plates were blue and yellow and did not look to good on a green truck.
I was going through this old thread and noticed that the last picture of the truck was before I painted the grill. Now it really ties the license plate in with the rest of the truck.
