2005 Excursion Eddie Bauer Pics - Needed

I am looking for some pictures of Eddie Bauer Excursions with a chrome lower bumper and chrome grill. If you have any or have found some and could post up that would be great. I am trying to decide if I want the upper plastic part of the bumper to be white or tan. Thanks

I think only the XLT had the chrome bumper/grille.

Correct, I was just hoping someone had swapped it and might have some pics.

Usually its the other way around. The chrome goes in favor of the body color.

If it were me, I would paint it what the lower cladding is on the sides.

I have a 2000 that I'm about to switch to an 05 grille and I plan on painting the bumpers AZ Beige, like the cladding. My top is white. I think with the big chrome grille and bumper is too much chrome.

I like my painted bumper, but chome is kinda classic and I don't think you can go wrong with it. XLT picture doesn't quite do it because the body molding isn't there.

You are correct

I decided to go with the tan on the bumper molding to match the body molding. We will see
