I appreciate the work that went into this ride, but I still think it's butt-ugly!

D, here is a pic of a black chrome rim, I think the contrast might be off against an all black truck, I thought about doing these myself but decided to coat my H2s in all black, by the way, the truck looks sick.

Very nice; I love the subtlety of the black chrome!

I agree; it's just not possible with my tonneau cover.

I thought you were gonna have the tonneau cover (and toolbox/fuel tank) modified to work with your stack(s)?

I know you didn't run out of $

I would think that you could have a piece of steel/aluminum put in the front of the bed that your stacks could run through, and then the tonneau could mount right behind it.

The problem is the way that the Tonneau cover works. I have the Diamonback ATV cover and both the front and rear sections open up which wouldn't be possible with the stacks. Also, since I carry the ATV on top of the cover, stacks would completely cover my ATV in soot.

OK so is this black chrome your doing on the rims a powder coat? I always thought it was a dip like regular chroming. I have done this through some local shops for the "ricer" scene. If your getting it done over an exsisting chrome I'm all ears.
