I don't see anything retro-styled about it. It just looks like it has a partial wrap & a bunch of cheap chromed bolt-ons (and that's not a roll bar - it's a "rack"). But I guess (having been alive in the 70s, owned & driven an F150 in the 70s) I have a different perspective than most...

Sorry, I got the terminology wrong on that "rack". Of course, so did the manufacturer since they call it a roll bar, too.

I don't see anything retro about it. But it ain't bad. Could do without the light bar.

Choices are always good.

I don't think it looks bad at all, except for the way they did the rear corner. I still prefer monochrome though.

It's just a different paint scheme.
