There have been people who have been painting over the chrome, but I don't think you can order it without the chrome. The EcoDiesel engine also only comes in certain trim levels so you have to go with those ones if you are committed to the EcoDiesel.
New forum member, looking at purchasing a new truck, have some questions!
Morning everyone!
Located in eastern Ontario (Canada) and had a few questions before I head into a dealer to start negotiations.
First off, is it possible to get any Eco-Diesel in whichever trim without all the chrome? I really dislike the chrome everywhere and would much rather it were all the same color.
Secondly, what kind of discounts are the Canadians getting on these trucks? I want to have some sort of base for how far I can push.
Lastly, why doesn't Dodge offer any HID headlights? Seems weird that 50k$ trucks and up don't even seem to have them as an option. Does anyone have any idea?
I am sure I'll have more questions, so I am looking forward to learning as much as I can off the forum.
Cheers!

Alright..
Love the username by the way! haha
Actually, looking through the builder on their website, the truck I want for styling is the Sport model, which doesn't come with the ecodiesel... That sucks.

Find a matching 4th gen bumper, anything from 09-14. They only have a few bolts holding it on.
Well, to be fair, it's both bumpers, the grill and the door handles.Find a matching 4th gen bumper, anything from 09-14. They only have a few bolts holding it on.
It'd be silly to buy a brand new 45k truck and the change all of that.
Ah well.

You can order an Outdoorsman with painted bumpers. But that gives you a two tone truck unless you order black. The Outdoorsman interior is similar to the trim level of the Big Horn. And you can order a laramie limited which will give you color matched bumpers, but still has a chrome grill. I almost bought a Sport instead of the Eco because of the looks. IMO its by far the best looking RAM.
Agreed, I was very disappointed when I saw that all the eco's came with chrome.You can order an Outdoorsman with painted bumpers. But that gives you a two tone truck unless you order black.

I have a strong dislike for chrome! lol
If you like the tough truck look http://www.realtruck.com has a big selection of after market bumpers/ grills and you could redo the whole look of the ram for less than $1000
I bought a tradesmen. It does have chrome front and rear bumpers and chrome around the grill, But door handles and the center of the grill are black. The tradesman also comes with vinyl floor covering.Witch I wanted because I hunt alot and always track mud into my trucks.
