I love Chrome

Is is possible to get two-tone paint and still have chrome bumpers? Every twotone superduty I saw has a painted front bumper.

Yeh, I knida wonder if you cann't order what type of bumpers you want. I have an 03 sport that has a chrome front bumper but yet everything else has the monochromatic matching paint. I kindamatch a l wish I could find someone to trade my painted rear bumper for a chrome one so my truck would ittle better. I also have a lot of chrome and stainless steel Accessories and agree the bumpers make a big difference if they are chrome.

I ordered an 05 F250 XLT 4X4 6.0 with two tone paint (True blue/ Silver) from Jeff on Jan. 30 and made the mistake of assuming the bumpers were going to be chrome. I just realized my mistake yesterday and unfortunately I'll have to live with it. The painted bumpers tend to chip from stone and road debris as I've learned with my last truck. (Black Dodge Sport)

The more chrome the better, I have added a chrome billet grill and chrome tow hooks on my 05.

Just when I learned that Ford will give you the AZ Beige two tone on an 05 XLT(used to be Lariet only) I find out the bumpers are painted...

I can't win.

Yeah, decks are great if you have to drive where its a little tight. Trailers are nice if you have a place to park them and it saves unloading the sled when you get home. Decks keep your sled clean, trailers have to be enclosed or have a big air/dirt dam to avoid that.

Thanks for the compliment!

Thats a great question, I would have assumed that XLT's and lariats would be chrome and xl and sport models would be painted.
