Customized burb! Thoughts?

Hey there! So I just finished a bunch of work on my truck, and I thought id throw it up here, see what people thought! Its a 94 Chevy Suburban 1500, nicknamed "The Ark", partly because my name is Noah, and partly because its huge. Its nothing super special, but im pretty proud of all the changes ive made! Ive done all the customizations myself, with some help from friends here and there. Mostly cosmetic mods, as this is my daily driver and I don't want to mess with much mechanically. List of mods, small and large;

Removed ugly running boards, tinted front windows, painted stock wheels black, custom painted red side stripes and 1500 logos, painted front bowtie black, 3" leveling kit, red footwell lighting(interior), kenwood speakers all around with rear a/c removed and 10" kenwood sub in its place, flowmaster 50 series exhaust, big red bowtie logo across rear windows, small red bowties in place of Silverado logos on sides, rubberized undercoating all along bottom sides(need to redo), + little misc. things. Im not done, but I think she looks pretty good for being almost 20!

first pic is of the truck the day I bought it. The rest are fairly recent. The 4th one is me parked next to a stock suburban of the same body style. The last one is of my truck with some cars at my work. The jetta next to me is lowered, and my truck is lifted! His roof doesn't even reach my side mirrors! and the last one is the truck next to my Camaro, the day I brought the Camaro out of storage this year!
Tell me what you guys think! (sorry for the crappy quality, all these pics were taken with my phone)

Not bad I like the red and black theme you got going on but I do not like how the Rims look painted at least that style of rim I would have plasti-dippped them first to see how they look but its your rife if you like them that's all that matters.

Thanks guys. Ive definitely spent a lot of time and energy on doing the work on this truck. (I did most of the work myself, so thankfully I haven't had to spend a whole lot of money, just time)

Thanks! I do like how the wheels look the way I painted them. But I didn't need to really see what they would look like first, because I knew that even if I didn't like them that much, id like them more than the stock aluminum color. I cant stand silver/grey wheels, and chrome isn't much better. 95% of cars on the road have wheels that are the same color. So I knew that black would look better (at least to me) no matter what. But thanks for the input, that's what I wanted lol.
