No chrome.

You and I seem to have identical twin Blazers. Mine looked exactly like yours, 98 4dr, 4x4 LT, red ext/black int, same wheels/trim/badges. I removed it all and it looks much better IMO.

Yeah the side trim is just stuck on with some real strong double-sided foam tape. The pinstripe, LT badges and emblems on the back tailgate are all just stuck on. The only problem is the trim on the rear bumper corners behind the back tires. It's held on by some little clips so it will leave three small holes if you remove those. I just left the trim on the endcaps for a while before putting some naked ones on that look better.

Chrome can look good, depending what it's against. A little chrome against a darker color is good IMO.
Chrome as a fender flare has GOT TO GO, seriously that does look cheap (the cheap chrome, maybe cheesy too) & is not functional. Rocker panel guard or bed liner is awsome in that respect!

BTW how'd you find me on FB? lol
