    Not all packages come with the exact options you'd like. That's why upgrades and modifications exist. Apply this to women at your own risk.

    I'll have a quicksand rear bumper available soon if any interest. No pdc sensors, mint with only 4k miles.

    I honestly don’t know. I have hi clearance rear bumper, never been a stock bunper on there since I’ve owned it. I wouldn’t think it would be to b hard though.

    I found these on PartsGeek.com but the passenger side looks glossy (Part Number: TO1105133) where as the drivers side looks matte (Part Number: TO1104133).

    Were these replacements or just covers you put over the "chrome"?

    I wouldn't want chrome on a flat color. That does look ridiculous.

    The flat colors I mean. ha. j/k they look good but I see them everywhere on everything now. As far as trendsetting, it's over.

    Last summer I was next to a Silverado on the highway that was damn near your description, it even had some funky chrome window tint, ugly as sin!

    I would like to do the MESO interior chrome delete but as easy as he made it look on video I can hear plastic clips breaking now just thinking about doing it myself.

    I love the look with both front and back chrome bumpers. Just think it looks goofy with just the rear being chrome. I like the balance I guess

    I went the matte black vinyl wrap route for my chrome bumper.

    Saw a guy who did the rhino liner to cover his, I wasn't a fan.

    The pic appears glossy but it's not and they are replacements not covers

    Absolutely agreed...I've been married 27 years...I understand upgrades and mods...particularly as they relate to expense...We own a horse farm, and I do not really care for horses.

    Didn't mind the chrome bumper but I think I like black more. I used Rust-Oleum peel coat and it matches the rest of the black trim perfectly. Also got a black TRD exhaust tip and painted the exhaust pipe to match.

    The rear chrome bumper is a dated look, to me. But if you like it, go for it.
