The tray and cab look like two seperate units, with no area of the tray blending with cab, I would;
Get a heap of cardboard and masking tape and build what I want on the ute first then use this as a pattern, would paint the finished pattern to see if it would be better black (ms painted) or silver(al/ss). Cardboard patterns were always a first step throught my trade.
Not slope those tail lights but keep it basic-not fussy/busy but tough.
Slope the sides of the under tray down to a point level with the base of the mudguard/cab, about 75mm behind the guard run parallel with the tray, carry this line through to another box/tray in front of the rear tyre running parallel with the tray and level with the cab.
Headboard; large diameter tube (painted same as tray edges) with checker plate insert.
All black except for al plate.
