yeah the mirror and handle inserts are too much. i would maaayybe do the side moldings and front bumper inserts like the s class or something, and thin- spoke chrome wheels- like 18's. I would be very selective tho. As you can see chrome is not very popular on this forum, i am one of the few who are into TASTEFUL chrome.

I actually have thought of adding some chrome myself. One idea I thought of was to add a silver tape from Tape Works around the seal right under the side windows. That way if I didn't like it I could just take the tape off.

Now I'm really offended.
I guess I should throw away my application to that fancy the Art Academy.
I guess the IT industry pays me better anyway.
Hmmm. Maybe I can still get some curb feelers to make sure my dubs don't rum on da curbs.
