I wanna do this on my northsky blue metallic but can’t decide between chrome that would match the bumpers and stock emblems or black. Looks good on your truck

Being a child of the 50's I always favor chrome.  I was thinking of chrome for my red Silverado, but was quickly shot down by "She who must be obeyed", aso known as "The Voice of Reason".  She "suggested" that black would be the better choice.  I think the chrome might stand out more with that color blue.  Either way you can't go wrong.

When it comes to the tailgate letters, black all the way, no matter the color of truck. I even put the matte black letters on my black truck. People give me crap about it but I like it. I love chrome, not anti-chrome at all, but I feel it would be just a little too much for the tailgate.

Therein lies the answer.  Its your truck and should do whatever pleases you don't worry about what others say or think.  Just like Ricky sang in "Garden Party".

 

 

But it's, all right now
I learned my lesson well
You see ya can't please everyone
So ya got to please yourself

I went OEM and got the Chevrolet 'blacked out' emblem kit, including the 'CHEVROLET' lettering in the tailgate.

I was surprised to find it is actually a hard emblem, not just a vinyl sticker, super high quality.

Most everything that people are installing on their hoods are just protectors meant to stop paint chipping on the leading edge of hood, they do nothing for keeping bugs off the windshield.

Absolutely! I have the aeroskin on mine as well and I’ll take scraping bugs off rather than filling in paint chips?

I went with the GM letters in silver. I'd like to replace most of my chrome with this silver.

like the insert guys. my truck is black, so I like the all black look. even the one decal i added to the rear window is black so that it's just barely noticeable. i'm glad they left it as is, or i think you'd see more "how do I remove the color" threads then you would, adding color.
