Well i have to do a head light mod because of the crash. So I was thinking about painting the chrome black chrome along with the grill and trunk bar. Mayby the wheels too. I was wondering if anybody knows where to get it. I know that dupli color and lexan only have regular chrome paint. Has anybody even seen it sold that way. I dont want to have to ship out all my stuff to get it done. Any suggestions

 

i was thinking the same thing with black pearl a few weeks back. the information i was was to do to a lexus dealer and ask for the company that does their black pearl work. hope this helps you

 

I would like to do it myself. I dont want to have to send it out or pay someone to do it. I am kind of crazy like that. Hands on.

 

those "chrome" spray paint never works, you need to get them professionally done

 

I was afraid of that. I will probley go with a gunmetal or something like that. but still have not came to a decision. What do yall think I should do.

 

I think gunmetal would look really sick Then I would do the trunk bar and grille the same way. I assume you have the stock grille with the chrome slats so I think if you painted that gunmetal and put a black pearl L in the grille that would look good.

 

talk to rmmgs4 about it. he got his stuff black chrome. a good local shop here did it for him

 

When puttng black chrome on the headlights do you do everything or do you keep some parts chrome so that the light will reflect off better?

 

Only the trim is black chrome. The reflector for the bulbs is still chrome.

Here's the part that gets treated.

 

See I think that would look so hot an the Antique Bronze Mica. Who did the work? If you could pm me a price that would also be great. I am trying to get things figured out with what I am going to do.

 

Unfortunately, the co that did that work isn't doing plastic chrome anymore. I called them last week to try and get some parts done. Anyone else know of any plastic chrome shops?

 

I just cant make up my mind. Can we make this a poll between Black Chrome, Gun Metal, Graphite, and a Titanium color. or other. I dont know if it can be done this late.

 

That's too bad. I guess I have to figure out something else then.

 

No sorry, you need to start a new post (poll). Although I'd say this is a pretty personal decision what you like best.... If it were me I wouldn't want anyone else making up my mind on my own car w/ a color choice

 

wait, so wheel techniques they don't do black chrome on plastic anymore?
