Does chrome package count as "stock"? That's how I voted otherwise the only chrome piece on the H3 is the grille. I like it with chrome door handles and mirrors.

You are correct, alrock.  Stock is as shown in your Signature pic.  Although mine is "stock", it came with black mirrors and door handles -- only the grill is chrome.  So I voted "less chrome is better."

I may look at getting a color matched grill one of these days.

My 07 Adventure came w/ the chrome appearance package and chrome grille?   I would not have ordered it that way, but it has grown on me and is ok.    Gos w/ the chrome wheels.

Mine came with Chrome handles, mirrors and side steps.  I just added a chrome gas cap, bumper letters, bumper grill with off-road lamps and aluminum finished roof rail to finish the look on my Black H3.  I'll be doing the same thing to my newly acquired Birch White H3.

True, HummBob.  It is definitely personal preference.  I just thought a survey would be interesting.

Like the saying goes...  Less is more. 


I like just a hint or two of chrome, I think it makes the few peices you do have pop out.

Chrome is OK, I guess it depends on your taste.  I've always hated it when people ghetto up a nice 4x4 like a HUMMER or a Jeep but oh well, it's their ride.  Personally, I'd rather spend my money on a winch or something useful.

Here we go all over again with the "ghettoing up" thing again.

i don't think it matters, if it's all covered in mud it all looks the same anyway. . . . . .

I like both if tastefully done, chome looked good on my truck so I went with that ( I normally have chrome steps also but they come off for off roading) , its a bit*h to keep it all clean but it looks good when it is. 

What looks bad is when people get all those cheap little chrome accent parts...that just looks cheesy.

I think Nascar 17 did a good job going all black.
