I think powder coating would be best...I like the truck, maybe just a new hood, something more aggressive would set it off me...

Most people who have painted chrome have not had very good long term results. I actually like the little touches of chrome on your truck, not too much, just enough to set it off a little. The monotone, paint everything to match theme is getting a little old if you ask me.

Since you say you have removed the stickers and decals... I would PTM the heads, PTM handles, get some NFabs.. Heck you can paint the stick on handles.. That's what I did.. Also PTM the mirrors.. I can find my how-to if ya need/want it
