I must take exactly the opposite stance lest i let you down, phil.
Black is for people who are trying to avoid animosity from other drives or 'wheelers and hide from the bling-bling image. I mean, its stressful when jeepers are mean and all. So chrome = flaunting, yes, but black = hiding in the corner.  (that was a joke  )
And in the end, blacking out a vehicle and chroming it up are peas in a pod. Modification of a vehicle to stand out or gain a look that suits whatever.
in all reality, i really don't give a rats what anybody elses truck is like, but i consider it my civic duty to counter manliness at all turns. this post was meant in good form, and not in ill.

Re: New member & hummer owner!
Your decision is actually quite simple. If you want it to look like the hard core offroad tactical urban assault vehicle that it is, go black.
If you want it to look like pimp daddy's ride, go chrome.
Next question.

laboratory tests consistently fail to demonstrate that chrome causes loss of offroad ability.

Re: New member & hummer owner!
Okay..maybe I might stick with 20's. I have one other question. What is the option on a leveling kit? My husband sells these and is itching to put one on, but I'm not sure.

I hope we don't have to wait to long. Given those stats, you are going to be bugged until you do.
Better just get it over with.
