IMO I dont think that it would look very good without the chrome trim cause I would think that you would have to remove the chrome trim along the rest of the truck...

 

And then you would have to remove the black plastic trim and being that it is an older truck I'd be afraid to know what it would like like under that Chrome and black plastic...

 

I thought about taking mine of on my black truck and on second thought it wouldnt look right without it...

I would leave them on as they help streamline the chrome effect from the front to the back. Looks good IMO.

I think so, but I'm not a fan of chrome fender trim. I think it'd really look good with all the molding removed.

I basically thought the same thing, but part of me still thinks it will look fine without the flares but still with the trim.

I personally don't like removing molding, it makes it seem like a base model truck. Besides, I don't think it would look right with my two-tone paint.

I think you should leave the chrome trim on, it would look too plain without it.

Now that I look at the truck again, I agree with you on the base model part. I think no-molding only looks good on trucks with fender flares, and slammed trucks. How is the chrome trim attached?

I have a biased opinion.

I am not a fan of chrome fender trim but I think it works on your truck. I'd leave it, personally.

I have to side with daddy on this one.
