Trimming to put it over the chrome would be an alright idea but I would think it might have some spots that rub that might lead to headaches later?
Al,
Can you post some pictures of what you are using? Is the sport bumper an OEM piece? Share brother...

The bumpers actually at the body shop right now.
It's an oem piece off a 2003 reg cab shortbox at the local wreckers.
The bumper, cover and brackets cost me 50 bucks and paint is about 250 including filling all the low spots such as rock chips.
I'll post up a bunch of pics when I pick it up Wednesday (I'm out of town for work until then)

The tab runs up pretty quick using those folks. I think I'll keep watch at the local salvage yards. Thanks...
