    Sweet!

    About the PTM on the rear bumper, honestly it would look odd if the rear bumper was chrome and the front bumper was PTM. Whenever you PTM the bumpers on 10th gens, you have to do both for it to look right. That's the way the HD's were, so they sort of laid the rules down.

    I've always intended on keeping my chrome bumpers. I like how it breaks up the HD valance. All of my bumper pads are PTM though.

    Yeah im kinda leaning toward keeping the chrome bumpers right now but black is still an option.. I dont want to PTM the front though so I dont think im doing the back either..

    Some of them came like that. I almost bought an STX that was red with PTM everything. They didn't want to deal with the price so I told em they could keep it. :jester:

    red ptm bumpers FTW


    ....on my truck at least... :jester:

    i agree with bama on the 10th gen ptm how both bumpers have to be ptm for it to look right. On my 97 i painted the front bumper white and it looked weird as hell having a chrome rear bumper.... so i made the ranchhand bumper :peace:
