Because getting a sport model was too easy?

Can't wait to see this. Thinking about doing this to mine.

Fishnerd, nice job on yours. The Raptor grill is not for me, but it ties in nicely on your truck.

Yes

Black = Sport

To me, the best sport color combinations are Red & Black or White & Black.

Funny thing, you like no chrome, I want more chrome. I just added chrome mirror shells. Shiney, beautiful! Different strokes for different folks, gotta love America!

Since mine is not sport, I added chrome gas cover inlay, chrome license plate holder and chrome like hitch ball.
Chrome, chrome & chrome mostly for older people.

Default Thanks

Thanks for the compliments guys!

Like I said in the original post it was definitely a PAIN and if I were to do it all over again I probably would have gone with the sport package to begin with. However at the time my current truck was about $8k less than the equivalent with matching bumpers. So there is a silver lining, the total to do chrome delete project was under $1k so I did save $7k (I consider that a win).

To those asking about the grill, I purchased it from ebay (galaxy moto).

Cheers!
