Well I finally got my fangs back, chromed.
Whats the verdict?

that looks bling blingish...I would do that to mine, but I would have to remove the VX emblem and have it also chromed
I like it. The factory ones are hard to keep clean. Bugs seem to stick to them more so than other surfaces. Maybe the chrome would stay cleaner or be easier to clean? At any rate, they certainly stand out more. I'd like to see a front picture taken at a distance so that the whole truck is in the picture. That way I could have a better perspective. Do you have any photos like that?
How much did this cost you? If you don't mind the question.

It would look better if they had only chromed the exposed aluminum and left the parts that are painted(?) black as black. As it is they are a little less fang-like since the rounded edges are gone.
I don't have any fangs on my gril.
Where can I get them?
If you restore the blackened area they'd rock!

Pretty shiney... but I agree, if they had just chromed the aluminum part of the fang it would stand out more as TEETH!
Thanks for the comments guys. I agree I told the chromers to only chrome the alluminum part but its seems something got lost in translation. It cost me $100 smackaroos, as thats their minimum order, so I got my wings chromed as well. Will post more pics of the fangs and the wings when I get settled in after my move to florida on Tuesday.
looks like rice.

Hey Bantan, where did you get it done? A local shop or did you find them online?
Bantan - looks good, I've been wanting to do that myself! They pretty much had to chrome it all, but my plan was to use black vinyl & and exacto knife to restore the black areas and keep the fang look to it. Looks good - can't wait to see other shots!
Never saw someone put chrome strip for the edge of the hood. I think the fangs would look nice with out that trim on the hood edge.
Nice anyway.
Got it done at a local shop in Queens, recomended by John C (Hotsauce)Originally posted by omegavx
