    Chrome doesn't look bad at all in my opinion.

    "Standard" satoshi with black mesh? If yes then definitely color match your grille surround... will look much better.

    Ok, looks better than I envisioned. However, I still think a color match to Super White would look sharp.

    Why does your front end look so squished? It looks long and thin... I guess its a camera angle.

    The chrome satoshi on that super white looked pretty sick and unique. Color-matched satoshis are EVERYWHERE

    It was a combination of camera angle and the wide angle lens I was using. I think that one was at 10-12mm.

    There's no option for black, so I voted white. The black might blend well with your BHLM maybe.

    They are everywhere cause everyone knows they look better, Ive said this a million times arlready but ill say it again, the grill surround is made to mold into the rest of the truck, it some what flows with the hood and bumper. Which imo looks better painted the same color as the parts of the truck it flows with.

    Why would you want it chrome, makes it stick out like a sore thumb.

    I have actually been planning both of those. Just haven't done it yet. Thanks for doing the Photoshop. Looks awesome.
