Tonya, I would say if you have chrome wheels go with the Chrome frame.

I like both of them. I like that the one matches the body color.....but I also like shiny things.....

Which one will it be "wearing" to Eureka Springs?

I will more than likely leave the black 1 on.. the chrome 1 went last year so its the black 1's turn... . In the next couple of days I will know for sure.

Probably not an option now that it is painted, but if it were, maybe leave the frame black and do the "Flag" sides chrome. That would look different. If not, I like the black myself.

I thought about doing something like that. but, I was worried it would start to peel at the joint... so , i chose to do the complete tag.
