    Eww...no chrome caps. Hell, I'll probably lose some chrome. Black looks nice against Cement.

    Sticker says Texas on it, vin begins with 5, can't blame the Mexicans, but there could still be a Tequila hangover involved.

    There's no obviously visible signs of any damage, just the wrong color part.

    I'm guessing it got dinged coming off the carrier truck, and somebody like me fixed it (colorblind).

    I think "assembled" in Texas/Mexico is the more appropriate term here

    It really shows how similar the silver and cement are depending on the light.

    It seems more Texas trucks are shipped to the east coast and more Mexico trucks head west. I have no scientific data, just noticed all were Mexico trucks in my 3 month search for my truck.

    I like it. Keep it that way. Get a silver front bumper and call it a day.
