After 1 year on your truck, how is the chrome holding up?

After 9 months my bumper looks brand new. The chrome is still In perfect condition.

Only had for about 3 months. Seems like good quality. My kit was missing 1 bolt and 2 extra nuts. Besides that I would buy this product again.

Great, but it only gets used in the summer and I keep the truck very clean.

The condition of the chrome plating looks as good or better than the stock bumper after the same amount of time-I would say that there is no differences between the two

I don't think it has quite been a year, but it's great. Everything is pretty much factory. I'm not unhappy AT all. The only thing I was worried about was shipping. But came fine. Hope I helped

It looks like the day I bought it. It's a nice bumper just like a Factory replacement all bolts and hardware are included.

I've had mine for about 18 mos. I've nit had any problems and it still seems very strong. The ones I was buying from an auto parts place didn't seem to make it a year.

I've had it in the sun/rain for about 1 year now and I can see some minor weathering on it, but it is very minor and still holding up extremely well.

Don't remember and don't really care, TBH. It's on my shoppe (body shoppe) truck. The fit is OEM and the chrome is like or better than what a chrome shop would do! Better than what I could get local in Denver,CO price wise too.

Hey Tom: I ordered one for the same exact truck you have and it fit perfect. All you have to do it take out the two screws pop on the new chrome (plastic) cover and use the same screws to hold it securely in place. It took me all of five minutes at the most. East job and it looks great. Best of Luck.................................JRW/BRL

Chrome 3/4, they clang, not an issue. Use electrical tape if a bother. Also, light grease lube to keep from seizing depending on where you live and weather.

So far...mine has held up very well. Looks the same as when I bought it ... I'm guessing 2 yrs ago. Worth the $$$

Chrome doesn't rust or corrode. The core material is plastic so there should never be a rust problem.

I've had mine for about 5 or 6 months and it still looks fantastic. No rust at all.

My step bars are powdercoated. One year with no scratches or rust, still look good!

1. I can't really attest to actual life expectancy since I've had it less than 1 year. It is made of stainless steel that has been chromed and is holding up quite well. It still looks as good as the day it was installed. In my opinion, the 3M double sided tape may wear out first and that's probably not any time soon. 2. I regularly take the GL through automatic car washes. No issues whatsoever. 3. No rust from the applied trim and not possible from underneath. If you examine the trim (it pops off), you'll notice it's black plastic with some kind of transparent clear coat. If worse comes to worse, you can just replace all the OEM trim (which you probably already know is very expensive). This option is relatively inexpensive and looks great. I don't think you can go wrong. FYI. I would also look at the same stainless steel chrome trim for the pillars to match the window trim.

I have almost a year with then on my 99 civic, still look like new. Just went through a winter and nothing. Though they do squeak a bit and are somewhat tuff to take off. I would definitely recommend, especially for the price!

No, ive had mine on for over 6 months now it hasn't faded or rusted. Where i live there isn't much rain though but it has rained a few times and no rust. But they do get dirty a lot with the exhaust coming out of them, they turn black every once in a while but you can just wipe it off with a wet rag or anything else.

Mine still looks new after a couple months of rolling around my truck. No missing paint so far.
