Thus why me and my neighbor are constantly swapping it, lol

I pulled mine thinking the chrome was just there for looks....nope. The drip rails are "unfinished" for lack of a better way to put it. I have to have the trim on otherwise it looks like garbage. Oh well, Ill have to source the black trim at a JY. Not a big fan of chrome on Jeeps, looks funny to me.
