I agree, but you need something rugged, use spray on bedliner and do your bumpers the same and that will look sharp!

Im kinda torn dude. I'd normally say do it, handsdown. But for some reason Im digging your chromies a little more. BUT, I would say that IMO the black would go badass with the rest of your rig, so, again, IMO, either way you go looks good. Get a side-profile pic of your truck and find someone to photoshop it for ya. It'll give ya a slight idea at what it'll look like
