I like chrome accents! For large pieces, if they are not color matched, then they need to be diamond plate.

I don't hate chrome, I'm just looking for a new look. I started out putting chrome on the truck but its just rusting out anyways so I would need to buy new parts anyway. I wanna see how my truck will look color matched I think it will be nicer with one solid color, although the chrome did look good against the dark blue. I'm in Hartford County, and as for the dual set-up, the left side is blocked out with my gas tank being in the way and my spare tire taking up a lot of space too, I can take a pic and post it tomorrow. But if I can somehow fit a pipe there, then I would definitely get a dual set up.

I still have plenty of time to think about it too, I don't plan on making any definite decisions until I'm out of school in May, I got a cutout to throw on also . As for the whole age thing, I'll be 20 this year haha, tough thing to think about

I think it'll look good without the chrome.
I'd still agree that your neighbor is a dink for quoting you that much. Shop around cause there are definetely some shops out the that will do a job like that on the side if they're already painting a truck the same color, and do it for cheap.

As for the age thing I don't think that has anything to do with it. I love chrome and used to have tons of it, for those who remember where my truck started out there was likely 1000 bucks into chrome add ons. I just want to get rid of mine because it doesn't really fit with the image of my truck.
