I like both looks, however on sterling grey I think black accents look badass. I like chrome on white, black, and lighter colored trucks. Sterling grey trucks blacked out just look mean

Chrome can look good, but only in moderation. Chrome wheels only. No other chrome accessories.
The thing I really hate about chrome wheels is taking care of them. Polishing, cleaning, and/or not running them in the winter is a PIA.

It seems like EVERYBODY these days is going for the whole blacked out look (black tails, wheels, bumpers, etc). I originally planned to PTM my bumpers and get a black grille, but the chrome has started to grow on me. So now I'm debating whether I should return the tails to stock and sell my wheels to buy some chrome ones. What do y'all think? Yay or nay on the chrome?

I farm, nothing but dirt roads and mud here.. (well when not in a drought) but I can tell you it's a heck of a lot easier to keep chrome clean vs anything dark. I and most around here won't own a dark pickup for this reason.
