Welcome to TW! I think it looks great, but as long as YOU like it then that's all that matters.

 

I want to get rid of the chrome to buy just got the truck last week and put new tires and rims on it but the truck is metallic grey

 

Which all that cost alot of money eventually I will do alot more to it but just dropped a good bit on rims and tires

 

And also what is the best way to get rid of the chrome just paint it?

 

Welcome to TW

Looks good. Just get what YOU want. Just get ready to

 

I know it's nothing like what u guys got but I plan on doing some upgrades to it slowly but this is the first car or anything I've been able to buy and add a little stuff to it.

 

Take your time and have fun with it... there is no rush! Truck looks great.

As far as the best way to remove chrome.... Buy black parts (black or color matched grille surround would look good). Remove chrome badges. Its what I would do.

 

Yes I want the chrome badges gone for sure and do u have a website or place to recommend to buy the painted parts? And best way to remove badges is it hard to do?

 

And do they make numbers that are painted to?

 

Or would I have to buy a aftermarket bumper?

 

I don't own a second gen myself, but your best bet would be to use the search bar in the top right corner. Tons of useful info on here to get you exactly what you are looking for.

I removed my badges using a hairdryer and dental floss! lol my badges came off rather easily since my truck was brand new.

 

numbers?

 

Bumpers I meant sorry

 

Welcome! Removing badges is pretty easy. Just heat them up with a heat gun or blow dryer and use fishing line to slide behind the badge and remove it from the vehicle. Then use goo gone to remove the residue and wax the area.

You can paint or plastidip the chrome bumper. I removed mine and sprayed it with primer, then used Rusteum truck bed coating on it.

 

Sure, you can find painted bumpers or aftermarket steel/aluminum bumpers or even paint your own bumper. The possibilities are endless

 

Finish line?

 

Fishing line. The string you use on a fishing pole.

 

Fishing line to slide behind the badge to remove it once you heat it up a bit
