Chroming the outside mirrors

I got this idea from the Audi S4 appearance package. On a silver color car especially, chroming the outside mirrors looks really really good. So for those of you thinking of making your CLS stand out, that will deffintly do it. Thank you and good night.

Zapata: I dont have pics, but if you look at the S4 on the Audi website, you should be able to find it. I think its looks pretty good on silver.


Nicky Pass: Well the paint chips now anyway, so I would think that chrome is much stronger the our 'excuse for a paint job' clearcoat. You need a pretty decent size bolder to chip chrome, and when something substantial hits a mirror, everything will chip regardless whether its chrome or clearcoat.
