Over-the-top chrome

I thought that chromed running boards were pretty glitzy...this truck is way past that point.

That's insane "over the top chrome" for sure..... not sure about that exhaust system but I do like the wheels.

Looks like a cross between an Effie and a fully dressed street Harley.

Either that or he owns a plating shop. I can't imagine what that cost, plus getting the metal so perfect first.

Cannot imagine following or in front of that truck while driving on a sunny day.

I agree a "bit" too much bling. Could you imagine, if it is real chrome" what that must have cost. I had, stop reading Abe, my two bumpers, OK Abe you can start again, and grill on my family 56 chromed and it was tapping on 5K.

I would lean towards John's idea although money ( or good taste ) is not an object for some . Cosmichrome is a Canadian company that makes a very nice product .
