Along with my grill idea, I have also been tossing the idea around of a Laramie bumper cover. I have read that they can be put over the chrome bumper easily. I have always liked the look of them. Would that be too poser-ish since I don't have a Laramie?

I didn't know either, I did some searching and found out that it's actually a coverup. I was happy when I read that. That it would go straight over the chrome bumper. :)

ive thought about this too and ive read somewhere that it will got over the chrome part if you take the top part off but i dont know where i read it at. ill look if i can find it

I found it out on Dan's thread. I did a search on here and was like Yah! it just a cover. lol :)

Yes, it will go over the chrome part! Just need the Laramie cover.

I found that out from your thread. ;)



Awesome that you guys have thought about doing this too.

Oops, missed the earlier post about trimming. I had read that that was something that might have to be done.


Luke, that will look awesome on your truck.

Yeah, it's hard to find time to do that stuff. Or other stuff comes up that takes precedence. I gotta take my truck to the dealer over the squealing so that's gonna be $$ I could have used towards mods lol
