    Thinking about getting some chrome rocker panel covers and was wondering if anyone had any pics of a Taco with them on. Had them on a dodge ram that I had and think they looked great! What are some of your opinions?

    Well I can take the heat!! I really like chrome if it's done right. I am planning on getting chrome Mickey Thompson Classic Lock rims, Chrome steps, Chrome bull bar, and already have a Chrome toolbox. To each his own, but I like the opinions! Plus it isn't like everybody else on here with black wheels and everything! UGH!!!! J/K

    I don't have anything against chrome or stainless steel, but I think that will look horrible on a black truck. Sorry, just my opinion...

    I'd agree. Chrome bull bar and chrome vents would set the look too!
