Please post chrome package photos
Could someone please post pictures of the chrome hood fins and chrome door handle inserts on a diamond white metallic (or other color)?

It would be nice if someone without the chrome fins and inserts could post a picture as well.

Thanks!!

I can post some pics on Thu or Fri, but ours is black. Went with both the hood fins and inserts. The handle is chrome on top and black elsewhere. I think the inserts will look nice. Debated between that and lining it with the clear protective film (also doing the bumper, hood bra, etc). Installer thought the chrome would protect a little better than the film and we thought the chrome would be a nice look.

I have the chrome package on my '14 GL350. I know these pictures aren't close up, but you'll get the idea.

Do you have a picture of your GL with the chrome? I just purchased a 2015 GL450, and want to do the chrome pillars. Did that on my wifes Lexus GS300; looks great!
Thanks!
