Best Peterbilt Chrome Upgrades (Interior & Exterior Cab)

When it comes to upgrading the chrome on your semi truck, the options are limitless.

You can add a chrome-polished plastic base housing to nearly any marker light on your truck.

Chrome Mud Flaps (Chrome Weights)

Stainless steel or chrome-polished mud flaps weights can be customized with CNC-lasered logos, light-hole cutouts, or additional reflective light hanger brackets with some matching chrome.

Anti-sail mud flap brackets to stabilize your existing mud flaps can also add that little touch of chrome. 

Chrome Door & Window Trim

Top chop windows can come as a solitary attachment or with a surrounding base trim.

You can also choose window sill trim.

Individual sleeper window trim pieces are almost always boasting a chrome-polished finish. Custom shapes and cutouts can also be made to truly personalize your sleeper. 

Chrome Sleeper Window Cutouts

These accessories can be purchased individually to fit your specific Peterbilt model sleeper window dimensions.

You can also add chrome-polished trim to your external side fairings, should you have those.

Interior Chrome Accessories for Peterbilt Cabs

Tips for Customizing Your Peterbilt with Chrome

First, stick with a theme. Envision what you want your truck to look like at the end stage.

Ideally, you want any extensive aftermarket customizations to be treated like a "one-and-done" situation. This will save you time and money when reordering and applying aftermarket upgrades. 

Next, identify and list out the most important upgrades you want to focus on. You can filter these options down by considering variables like: price to budget, style preferences, and in-stock availability of specific brands or accessories.
