Hello everybody, I haven't been around much lately but I'm back with questions of course.

Ok so long story short, my truck was backed into and hit by a co-worker in a bus and from the looks of it I'm going to need a complete front bumper (cap,bumper and valance).
My question is do you all think I should get it back just the way it was with the stock chrome bumper,painted cap and valance like in my sig pic? or, get a Z71 bumper and color match the valance? Or go all out and look into getting the SS bumper depending on cost difference?

I'm pretty sure most will say the SS but I just wanted to see.
Thanks,
NJ04HOE

SS color matched IMO. Then afterwards, the HD hood would look sick.

I like it the way you had it. Something new is always cool though.

SS bumpers are cool! But it is a pain in the butt to install fog lights in them Trust me.
I have been trying to figure out how to mount some Fogs in my Silverado SS for a long time now.
There is no way i would sacrifice the fog lights on my Tahoe to have a cool SS bumper

fog lights in LA are illegal unless foggy or raining.. I got pulled over in my nbz z71 tahoe for having them on and the state trooper made me take a field sobriety test... in the nnbs i have LED fogs I've turned on like twice (literally ********* light output ever)

That's one big reason I don't want the SS bumper....thanks to everyone for the opinions I'll let you guys know what I decide and have pics of course once the work is done.
