I like the look. Is there anything special when painting over chrome. I'm thinking about painting mine black to match the truck.

You do go off road right? First trip out it will look like shit with rock chips and stuff. Am not a fan of PTM stuff if I know it will get used in areas where it will get chipped easily.

True but you can get that 3M film to put on it too, it helps a ton

True... and unless you are seriously going places that you are going to stuff the bumpers into the dirt, they will hold up fine. I understand the concern of chipping them up but I doubt it will be a big issue.

My uncle has that on his dodge, well did after 5 years took it off and holy build up on the front end. Not really a fan on the 3M stuff. The BMW's and Audi's have em. Some look good others like look crap. Some time and a detailer stick with the paint. True on not stuffing it in a mounting. Yet on freeways and such that one little black mark on a white bumper, in my eyes looks like crap after that first chip.
