Curious, I am contemplating pulling the side moldings front, rear, and sides and spraying them to eliminate the chrome molding to give a sportier look. Thoughts? Anyone else have a pic of theirs? Still unsure about the handles.

i don't think it's necessary on a silver car. The chrome and brilliant silver kinda just blends in. Just remove all the amber on the car, but you've done that!

thanks for the input, still up in the air on this one. Keep going back and forth, I will need to snap a few pics and do a little editing on the chrome.

Having owned a silver e55, I found the chrome accents to be just that- accents. Id leave them because anything else would look cheesy. The E55 is a classy sledgehammer IMHO and in silver the chrome fits.
