Spring detail (pics) - Updated with black out trim
Spent a bunch of hours...exterior, interior, and engine compartment (forgot pics under the hood)...I keep my car pretty spotless year around, but go the extra step 2 to 3 times a year to get it as close to perfect as possible....
One thing I constantly think about is how much I do not like the wide chrome strip under the windows, the thin chrome trim above the windows and along the bottom is nice, anyone ever just black out the wide trim piece? I do not want to black out everything, wonder how that would look??? I will try it tonight and post tomorrow...

Well, I kept thinking about this, so went ahead and gave it a shot - thoughts? Now that it is complete, I am not sure if I like it better chrome or black - I will feel it out for a few days and either leave it or rip it back off...
It only took about an hour, came out basiclly perfect - toughest part is the end by the rear windows where the rubber will not lift up, took some time to figure that out and the rest went really quick and easy..

I have actually been sitting on a stool with a blow dryer and dental floss in hand...and chickened out from removing it - Not sure why but I just cannot make up my mind on doing that, it looks good every time I see it like on C300kids' car above, just can't pull the trigger a just yet....Did you remove yours Spec?
