Congrats on your new ride! That black looks awesome. I too pulled the lower chrome rail on the doors, as it looks better IMO. Enjoy it!

I'm seeing a theme here... although keeping all those black/dark rides clean/swirl free is probably a nightmare!
De-chroming our black Cs has the most visual impact IMO due to the high contrast. It is fairly easy to do, too. Get yourself some Trim Brite from Amazon pronto-quicko. Welcome!
