The fact is, I'm not 16. I remember back when cars had style... and class.... And honestly, I think a small amount of chrome or in my case, stainless steel, adds a bit of accent to a vehicle. I don't dislike the blacked out look. Some of those trucks on here look pretty badass! And I applaud them for their tasteful execution of the concept. I just happen to be going for a more elegant look. I don't want to trick my truck out like an offroad racer, a swamp buggy, or a Monster truck. That's fine for others, but not what I want.

I don't agree that every chrome bauble that exists looks appropriate on any vehicle. I don't live in Miami, so I can't relate to that or the "jumping" suspension on skinny tires with wire wheels.... BUT, I own MY vehicle, and that's the one I'M going to decorate, accessorize and dress up the way I see fit. Everyone else will do the same to theirs. Again, it boils down to what YOU want.

Now when someone asks for pics of something and I, or anyone else, can help them out and supply pics or websites to peruse toward that purpose, then I'm going to do it. Those with disparaging tastes who want to upchuck attitude should just go take a valium and sleep it off.

And yes, opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one, but it's not an open invitation to show them to the world when someone asks for photos of something.

And remember, open your mind. Just because the fact that the "every single piece of chrome available" design scheme may not look good, doesn't mean that a select amount of appropriate trim doesn't. Be individual, do what you want, and let others do the same.

OK, so earlier I said I was the MAN... I must now say that Black Beauty, YOU are THE MAN!
