The chrome accents look very nice. I assume it has the Appearance Package? It just needs the chrome aero wings on the air intakes now.

I wish the appearance package had been available on the '08s. I installed the chrome rear bumper step plate but the chrome luggage racks are not feasible.

Great pics, Vornado and conciouscool.

I completely agree with Scott on 09 Appearance Package being such a great deal with chrome beltline and bumper plate additions,

Thanks everybody for their comments. I do plan to install the chrome aero wings on the air intakes. I think they would look good.

I've got those and I have to say, if you get the right ones they really do accent well against the black.

Please tell me what you mean by: "the right ones". Are there different ones?

Happy New Year to you as well Jack. Let's hope you don't have any more need for 4WD on the streets of Vegas this winter.

I am in California (Silicon Valley) for business so getting a much needed thaw.

Search the threads but there was someone selling some that didn't fit properly at one point. The fit's really important because each fin's a slightly different size.

I still like mine a lot. Got them from Park Lane (someone correct me if that's not the right guys?), but I don't know if they're still selling them.

STP, assuming you got yours from the same place I got mine from the name of the place is Park Place Motors in Texas.

THAT'S the one. I should've known a Bean Counter would remember where they came from!
