That's a little much for me personally. I do like the chrome in moderation. I'm thinking about possibly doing a tan overlay on the front ford emblem

If he buffed things too, then that sounds better. I'm charging a guy $40 right now... Apparently I should've charged more, oh well

Yeah I think he originally thought it would take him longer than it actually did but he obviously wasn't gonna budge on the price we agreed on. I like it, so it is what it is.

Huge improvement! Looks great!
I am trying to get the body shop my brother works at to paint the surround on my new truck and they said no.

I don't like tan, in and of itself, but as an accent, that looks fantastic. Do it man, do it!!!!

I dont like the tan grille, but I COULD do the tan emblem (if it were mine) ...

but honestly ... I dont mind the ford blue at all ... My truck is pretty much monochrome (tux black) except for the color of the lights/reflectors, and the ford blue emblems. I like it that way, with just a few spots of color to pop out off the black.
