Chrome on a JK...not for me! But Chrome does not look bad on these CJ5's....Black is a 73 and the white is a 75...Got to park my JKU next to them at the Calgary show and shine and had a great visit with the owners!






73's Custom Hood!

I was a fan of my neighbors YJ with chrome tube fenders.

I think YJs and earlier models are fine with a splash of chrome. Since the spawn of millions of SUVs, I think chrome has gotten lost into several stereotypes...

I'd have to agree -- nothing I know of ruins a Jeep more than chrome does...

I like the chrome on the CJ's and YJ's, but not on the TJ's and JK's

Unfortunately, the chrome is back on the JK here in Quebec since last year

I am not a chrome fan... the only chrome on the jeep is the mopar grill guards... i searched very hard for a 07 sahara in rescue green... and I had to settle for the one that already had it installed, and i dont wanna remove it...
