Jk... the truck looks great.
Beat me to it! I'm not a fan of chrome on trucks so I think the truck looks great too.

I am in the same boat, wanting to get rid of all the chrome. Is there a plasti-dip that matches Sterling Gray? That is keeping me from doing it.

There probably is. Check out dipyourcar.com. They can mix stuff for you.

I think plasti-dip has an anthracite that might be close to sterling grey. Otherwise I belive rust oleum makes something similar as well.

Anthracite is the color you are looking for. Closest match to Sterling they offer.

Anyone got a shot of their sterling gray with anthracite dip? I want to ditch the chrome and have the cans to do black, but would rather do something closer to ptm.

Just an FYI that post was right after I did them 2 years ago. I am going to finally have to touch up this year. It has held up really well, only thing really messing with it was when I drove through some mud that was a lot of clay soil and had to power wash it off.
