Correct me if Im wrong.......
But if thats the same car Im thinking of....its just painted chrome. Not really parts made or dipped in chrome.
The paint is from Alsa Corp. and is called Mirra chrome.

Never seen this before, believes it belongs in car chat, but still wow. The second picture actually looks good. But why does this one look so much different from that one rappers Lambo? Was his actually dipped in chrome and this one just painted chrome?

Im liking this car - a lot. But I would never drive it. It's cool for show but you'd blind everyone around you if you were to drive it. haha
I wonder how much weight difference there would be if this car was actually chromed opposed to painted...?

A ridiculous amount more. I don't believe plastic can be chrome plated anyway. So some of it would have to be painted chrome regardless. Imagine how heavy chrome wheels are and compare that to a chrome hood, trunk, fenders, doors.

I thought I remember reading on E46Fanatics that this car was at the shop getting some engine work done and they left it outside for days and ruined the paint. Not sure what happened or even if its true but thought they had pics posted on the thread about it
