Chrome or black?
I've decided on the grille guard I want, but I can't decide if I should get chrome or black. Here's the Go Rhino! 3000 series in chrome:
On this truck:
The problem I have is, I know the chrome would match the chrome bumper and grille, but I'm not wanting MORE chrome.
If I went with the black grille guard, I would probably have the bumpers sprayed in line-x and have to either get a new grille or have it painted gray to match the truck.
Please let me hear your opinions! Thanks!
*oh and I plan on replacing or removing the step tubes on the sides with black or something less noticeable.*

Plus these are good quality as we have them on our Rescue trucks and they've held up looking fine for at least 5-6 years now w/ no flaws.

Line-X is a material that is applied via spray gun to coat truck beds and whatever else your heart or wallet desires.
