The SB's are my favorite looking reefers of all, way cooler looking than any Carrier, and the Precedents are my least favorite looking. To me it looks like they tried way too hard to make the Precedent look bad ###, with those giant wavy bars across the grill and other assorted meaningless intricacies. The SB is understatedly bad ###, with a clean and simple form-follows-function design, it just looks like a rock-solid hunk of machine. The Precedent goes way over the top in the opposite direction, just looks busy, cluttered, and pointless.
Yeah I know, it's just a machine and the important question is how well does it do the job, but still, it needed to be said. Just my $0.02.
Precedents are ugly

Or just remove and fab one up out of metal with the look you want and get it powder coated, probably be about 3 k for that if i were near my dads steel shop and doing it (im not, please dont ask me to do that, hands full on working on my own crap )99kw900 and slow.rider Thank this. -
You can get an all black with chrome option. Have an O/O with one. Be prepared for sticker shock down the road when you have to replace parts on them.
bzinger and slow.rider Thank this. -
