Pretty sure they were. '10 begins the new style. Matter of fact, I think '09 is the one and only year you could get chrome factory gumbys. If I'm wrong, I'll be corrected.

When the Gumby's first came out, I was not a fan of them. I ordered my 09 with these polished Gumby's thinking I'd go aftermarket. But after I got them I changed my mind as I realized how the smaller center section accentuated the size of the drilled disk rotors and calipers plus the fact that they are strong (forged) and light. Now I prefer them.
