Yeah that's the next set of mods, de-chroming the entire thing, fron chrome grill, door handles, side vent, around the windows

that's for visual mods, wrap all the chrome with matte black or get all the chrome finished in black chrome!

Performance mods en route as well! De-catting the exhaust, fitting in air filter and after that custom headers!

Also I didn't get the calipers painted but I'm planning on so any tips for what colour I should go for? Red? Yellow?

Black chrome is way more unique compared to matte black. Bright colored calipers won't look good, they are too played out and it isn't a sports car either. Get them done in the body color and then remove those antennas.

Yeah black chrome would look lovely but I think since the rims are matte already shouldn't the chrome parts also be matte? Instead of black chrome? what do you guys think?

Calipers yeah I think red or anything bright would maybe look TOO flashy or a bit over the top + never see red calipers or something on a Nissan Patrol its just wrong.

The antennas wow so much hate? I am removing them only to fit another antenna which is a different style.

Can't put this in a nicer way: they are nothing but local rice. What purpose do they serve!

hmm thats great news for me the Tundra TRD Vs the patrol wow. I have driven the new patrol even though i think it looks a lot less meaner than the old 1, the sound of the engine revving and the power is way higher in the new 1. Also i loved the interior is like heaven compared to the old also the the new reverse camera looks like a mini satellite feed cos its from all sides.

Haha only TRD ya3ni, stock Nissan will take easily.. Yeah the old one will still be my all time favorite but the new one is a beauty, amazing to drive, very comfortable, raw and so much power available! Haha the exhaust note is okay once I remove the cats then the exhaust note will be good

haha yeah it has all the high class luxury features one needs..
