The chrome on our trucks just don't do it, The fx4 trim looks really good on the green IMO.

yeah i go back and forth, honestly. Most of the time I hate the chrome, but when she's all cleaned up I go back to liking the chrome. I think of all the colors out there, ours looks best with chrome, but it looks better with black and paint to match

I'm not a big fan of chrome in general, and I hate how it looks on blue flame, but I think the green and brown colors really come out with chrome bumpers etc.


I wouldn't PTM the trim at all! leave your chrome!

Nice! wish i could find a decent PTM bumper, like this black a lot but when there's a lot of light on the paint you can see a pretty stark difference. Definitely post pics if you get that PTM bumper on, cant wait to see that.

I have some FX4 running boards on the way right now, think that will make a big visual (and functional) impact.
