    Both are Stock - built correct from the start.
    I like chrome with the right color combo. Desert sand, Army green, etc., not so.

    No way, it's fugly....now I like the real chrome on my 1st gen but thst also has chrome front bumper too. Maybe that's it, 3rd gen only has chrome in one spot, just looks out of place.

    That’s exactly my thought. Any truck that has both bumpers chrome I don’t think anything about

    fortunately the rear bumper on the 2.5 is metal. I've thought about doing something on the front....

    2020 Off Road. Chrome on the wheels, in the headlight/taillight bezels, side view mirrors, and the rear bumper.
    I removed the badges but I'm keeping the rest.
    I think the truck looks great as-is. Need a window tint when it warms up though :)

    Didn’t mind the chrome on my ‘07 (red) but like the colour matched rear on my ‘20 better.

    For me, it’s bearable with some colors, but definitely prefer the color matched

    I actually think the chrome rear bumper looks good on my '19 Off Road. EVERYTHING is going to this monotone look these days and I am not a fan. But I am 54 so definitely old school...

    Lol. My brother is a huge Cowboys fan. He's been in a constant state of disappointment since '95! We go round and round...

    Another vote against the Chrome from me. @AJ is that just plasti dip on the bumper or a new bumper?
