FULL-CHROME anyone? (pics)
There is a new Mercedes Kalender for 2004, and all cars are some kind of full-chrome. really awsome photographics (not photo-shoped). too bad, i couldn´t find any good photos on the Inet, but there is a windows-screensafer with these picutres in 1024x768, i tryed to take a screenshot of them. it worked, but it would be very nice if someone could make real wallpapers out of the screensafer.

Jaguar did the same thing to the new XJ at the auto show. They simply skipped the paint process on the panels, and buffed them, and painted them with clear-coat.

Felix: You can get that picture as your background wallpaper. Just go to your own post, above, right click the picture (in Internet Explorer) and select "set as background". It will then become your wallpaper. I did it, danke for posting.

i dont think this paint will ever come out because of the safety issues, i would never support this type of look no matter how good it looks. also, jaguar already had this prototype color on thier last generation XJ.
