Hey guys new to the forum I have a 2012 white Lonestar edition truck so lots of chrome from the beginning. I changed over to the white paint matched door handles. Now im trying to decide to do black side steps and a black bull bar or stay with the chrome. Thoughts and pics please guys need some ideas.

Sorry JJ but I'm anti-chrome, I say go with the black side steps and bullbar, but just get a chrome skid plate for your bull bar so it matches somewhat

Anti-chrome ftw. I'm partial towards black also just a little. So I'd say black. Haha.

I normally don't like chrome either, but if you already have it on your truck, I don't think doing chrome would look bad. With the black, you'd have all kinds of colors going on. Good job on the door handles though.

I vote chrome as well. It'd go better with the rest of the chrome.

I'm a Sport fan, obviously, but if I had chrome bumpers I'd go with chrome steps and pushbar to match. On a white truck the black would stand out too much and look like an afterthought. In chrome it would like more like it came from the factory that way.
