I did not think to check Dipyourcar.com when I found them on amazon. Assuming I need more and lowes doesn't carry it in my area, I will do that.

I agree with those who suggest anthracite gray for the grill surround and bumper.

While I like the looks of your bumpers..not really feeling the grill and Ford emblems. But it is your truck. Painted bumpers are about the lamest thing since they get rock chips and then start to rust(bad idea).
true, but ford aims to sell from the new truck showroom floor, not from the used truck floor. PTM looks sweet new, but eventually gets destroyed. chromed crap tends to hold up better.


my fx4 has rock chips out the ***, and my xlt has maybe 3, on the hood. the xlt has a lower front end, and like 93k, the fx4 bumper looks tore up with only like 57k. a couple chips/scratches, but still far more than the xlt with its chrome bumper.


not really related, but chrome really grew on me once I started developing a deep appreciation of quality hand tools.

Do you have a sunroof? Seems that trucks going back to the 04 model year have accelerated cab corner rust if they are equipped with a sunroof. I remember seeing a thread in the 04-08 section where it showed the sunroof drain dumping right into the cab corner.
