Top Chrome Upgrades for Peterbilt 389
The Peterbilt 389 is one of the most iconic semi trucks ever built — and one of the most popular trucks to customize with chrome accessories. Whether you run a 389 as an owner-operator or manage a fleet, chrome upgrades make a real difference in how the truck looks and holds its value.
Here are the top chrome upgrades 389 drivers are buying right now from Chrome District.
1. Chrome Spike Lug Nut Covers
The single most popular upgrade for any Peterbilt 389. 33mm spike lug nut covers in chrome give your wheels an aggressive, custom look. A set of 10 runs about $30–$35 from United Pacific. Easy to install — they just thread on over your existing lug nuts.
2. Chrome Bumper
A factory bumper shows wear fast. Aftermarket chrome bumpers from brands like RoadWorks and United Pacific are built heavier and look sharper. Budget $800–$1,500 depending on style and accessories.
3. Chrome Sun Visor
A stainless steel drop visor is one of the defining looks of a customized 389. Available in 13" and 14" drops. Prices range from $350–$500 for quality stainless steel.
4. Chrome Mirrors and Trim
Mirror covers, door handle covers, and trim pieces add up to a completely transformed exterior without major cost. Most individual pieces are $30–$80.
5. Chrome Steering Wheel
An 18" wood or leather steering wheel changes the entire feel of the cab. Popular options include the hourglass style and the classic wood grain. Expect $200–$300 for a quality wheel.
6. Air Cleaner Brackets with Lights
Stainless steel air cleaner brackets with integrated watermelon lights are a classic 389 upgrade. They add both chrome and lighting in one package.
