Today I ordered an N-Fab front Bumper for my White Raptor. It ships out black, usually. I asked to have it color matched to my flares and grill in that "Graphite Gray" Color. Now my question is, your guys thoughts on the color... Black, or go color-match Graphite Gray? I love Bojangles set up with his ADD bumber in Black... However I feel it's good looks might be due to the black wheels and 3M hood vinyls... Let me know your thoughts.

If you're gonna leave your fenders and wheels gray, then my opinion would be go gray with the bumper too.

Originally I was gonna do a gray bumper, but once I changed wheels my plans started changing.

Which N Fab did you get? ....full replacement?

Yes... Full replacement... As much I wish i could have gone ADD, it came down to price. That's the thing tho, I'll probably go black wheels soon. It's tough... I hate options.

I agree with the grey. It would wrap the color from the wheel flares right around the front...and would look proper with grey of the grille. Hadn't seen that before.

That is a beast of a bumper right there.

I'm rather torn like you are. Except I have black wheels. I may end up painting my flares white so then the grey may not be as flowing.

Big beast indeed, but way too much open space for me. I think you could hide a deer and a few illegals in that thing!

MX, If you haven't seen it yet, hunt for some pics of Raptizzle's truck. He was the first guy on here to do white fenders.... He's also got the naked ADD front bumper, an ADD rear bumper, top perch, Methods, and a Tiregate..... His truck looks great, might give you an idea of how yours would look with white fenders (makes it look WIDE in a good way from front/back views)

Bstoner59 also has color matched (grey) bumpers made by ADD. They look great on his truck, if you go to Addictive Desert Design's user profile here on FRF, Look for the photo albums on their FRF profile page and look for the pics titled "Brian Stoner Raptor" if you wanna see them.
