Black or Chrome

No black bull bar and no chrome bull bar but as far as black or chrome.....personal choice and depends on the vehicle IMO. As far as my SR5, it came with some chrome but everything I've done or added was black. I have a mix of chrome and black on the 08 RC SR5. chrome grill and back bumper and my aftermarket wheels are black with polished lip. On the 05 AC Base it was all black trim. Here's my mix........

 

Still contemplating. I have some paint work to do, so my budget is shifting to that. If I go with black, it will probably be a wheel with black accents. Plus I'm looking at getting more black accessories to bring it all together. Blacked out Halo LEDs, black mesh grill, no emblem, etc..

 

I hear ya....Just got done painting 3 bedrooms at home. Lots of fun lol.

 

My paint work is the truck, hood and roof have clear coat pealing. Looking to replace hood with scooped version in the process (even though some complain about the glare). Got some kind of suspension noise going on now, so I'm sitting at 4Wheel parts.

 

Thats no fun!!!!

Possibly look at a flat black roof wrap (even could do the hood for glare) and this could tie in all the black on the truck.

Hope they figure out the suspension man

 

@ChadsPride still haven't decided yet. Trying to figure out whether to plasti-dip or paint it.

@RogueFuel I love my bull bar im not very tall and cant see over my hood all that great so keeps me from bumping into shit My emblem broke -_- have yet to replace it been caught up in all the holiday festivities

 

Get on it!!!!

 

C'mon Jimbo! No Gen 1 Chrome lovin? I'll leave this here..

OP, I would remove the bull bar and deposit in nearest body of water never to be seen again. Black TRD wheels would look great with your color. Black emblems too. Just my opinion, good luck!

 

Thats a sick ass grille dude!!!!

 

Thanks Chad. just a touch of chrome for the trails

 

I'd rather be Homeless than Chromeless!!!!!

 

Well said my Brother!!

A little shine for dirty trail time!

 

Thought i would share my truck and a couple of rough photoshops for options

 

Wanted to give a little update after i completed my saotshi with colormatched surround.

 

you must not bump into anything very hard. What you have there in a bull bar is also known as a damage multiplier in the event of a higher speed collision since it doesnt have any real structural integrity and when it bends it can take out the grill, radiator, headlights, hood, etc. But, your truck looks nice....just understand it doesnt really protection and only provides looks.
