Arizona Beige FX4?

Have any of you guys ever seen an '04-08 Arizona Beige FX4? I'm trying to decide what to do about possibly eliminating my chrome on my Lariat.

Back in May I bought this AB Lariat 4x4 to replace my totalled '04. My '04 was Aspen Green/Arizona Beige two tone.
I ordered it that way because I'm just not a real fan of chrome.

Well, back to my current '05. I bought it because it was good deal and a nice truck cosmetically and mechanically. It is also very similar to my '04 except for color scheme and chrome bumpers.

I want to paint my bumpers to match my AB exterior but I'm concerned as to how it will look with the whole truck that color. (It might look Great!)

I did some searches but I haven't seen any '04-08 trucks in Arizona Beige with PTM bumpers. I also considered painting the bumpers, the lower areas and fender flares charcoal like many of the FX4's.

I Da know. What do you guys think?

I toyed with it but the color needs chrome. The chrome doesn't chip Luke paint does either

I did a little digging and found this, the pic is not the best, but it might give you an idea.

EDIT: here is a gallery, I think it looks good: http://www.fordf150.net/photos/u118732-ImTHATGuy.html

That looks way overdone. This color needs chrome

I thought about that too. I just can't bring myself to paint chrome black. I can however go Arizona Beige.
My truck has a lot of black already on it that I think would go well together with AB bumpers.

Plus I think it would have the elegance of the Limited.

I like it, your nerf bars will help break it up, you could also play with wheel options. I think its a go!
