Chrome Tow Hooks

Does anyone know if you can get Chrome Front Tow Hooks for the New F-150. I've looked around but I can't seem to find anything.

Just take your's off sandblast them and have a custom plating shop chrome plate them for you. In Beertown here with all the harleys there are quite a few places that can chrome plate about anything for you.

Dunno, not really a big fan of chrome (gasp!!!) like the bare stainless look myself. Look in the Yellow pages under plating or electroplating shops.

Check on ebay -- I've seen quite a few listings from a company up in Dallas that offers chromed F-150 tow hooks. If I remember correctly, the cost is about $90.00 per pair, and may require you to send your painted hooks in as a core.

Not sure how much more expensive this would be than just having some place plate your existing hooks, but it's worth a look-see.

I'm not a huge fan of chrome either, but chrome hooks vs black ones look a little nicer..
