Painted Chrome Trim Black

It looks so much better. I did have to buy new trim to do it, about a $600 job said and done but looks better. Anyone else done this?

I don't have a camera. I don't think you would want to DIY. It's hard to get the paint to stick. I think if I had to do it again, I would have had it wrapped in vinyl.

I've seen the other threads on this forum and this is probably in the top three of best threads.

MUHAHHAHAH!

Is that your final answer?

Yes, this thread is much better than pinging, a new supercharger, coilovers, an inability to open one's gas door, electric steering, brake upgrades, exhaust options, window garnish flying off, or any other useless threads we all discuss here.

Yell up the basement stairwell to ask your Mom if you can borrow her camera.

You're funny, man.
