I'll also ad this. Bad place for chrome, it will wear super fast, rust and then be costly to strip and paint. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2008 Posts: 502 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2008 Posts: 502 | You didn't say what color your truck was but the darker the color the more they will stand out.
Take some alum.foil and cover the running board, stand back and look at it and see if you like it.
I wouldn't do it cause any piece of chrome you can afford to buy today is mostly cheap plating and will show rust in in a short time.
