ehhh...not really tooo much...i would rather a CF window trim...

 

How about some chrome trim to fix the faded a$$ strips on the top of the car.

Both of mine have faded and I'm wondering, if I buy new ones from the dealer, I'm gonna run in to the same problem in next year. Where's the quality control??

 

Thr portholes make it look like a Buick. Not the window pieces.
Maybe the side molding. the air dam and trunk pieces NOT!!!

As far as the roof chrome trim, Have you tried polishing it yet, with a polish for that kind of stuff. Be carefull not to get any on the paint, It will take some of it off. Or regular car polish for the painted parts should make it look good again too. Stay aaway from the scratch & shine car washes.

 

for me i dont like all that chrome...that ghettorific for my teaste

 

no you won't, the new one's are made better and won't fade.

that chrome stuff is wack...

 

My chrome trims on the roof have faded, except for the two small pieces in the rear, left and right side.....makes me so mad. I bet its so much to replace too....

 

That's to much and it looks like a Buick. Chrome door handle are ok. I have the ones from usspeed. I put them on to bring out the color. The car looks black even to me sometimes and I love it when you can clearly see the smoke color.

 

I've heard a few ppl getting the trim replaced by the stealership and in the process they conveiniently cracked the windshield! :

 

The dealer replaced mine in 20 minutes. No problem. The chrome is nice and smooth,after a car wash I can polish them to a shine with a cloth.

 

I don't like chrome personally, but the door handles do look good.

 

Not big on chrome...

 

Like they say in the chopper world "Chrome don't get you home!"

A little bit is alright.

 

that hurts my eyes just looking at it!

 

too flashy, maybe for the rockets but not on a Max. if anything just the door handles...maybe

 

The only chrome that I have on my car is the roof trim......idk why most of you are saying that's "too much".........are you on The Price Is Right playing that one pricing game for a car or something?! (lol I wonder if anyone will get that)

 

just the door handle will do

 

I hate chrome, I'm painting my roof strips as soon as I have some more $$

 

I see something I loath in the OP's pic.....those damn dealer stickers....arrrggggg. It'll be a cold day in he|| before I'd let a dealer sell me a car with advertising on the bumper. I HATE THAT!

 

Cheaper if you use vinyl. You can get it in black,grey or carbonfiber. Just have it cut to fit and your done.

 

Chrome is like cologne, a little goes a long way.

I am one that had the roof trim replaced and they cracked my windshield!!! Sux azz to get it fixed.

I like the level and placement of the chrome on the new Murano, under the door and on the front bumper and the door handles. On a onyx Max I wouldn't want too much chrome but I do not want too much black either.

 

To me, chrome = cheap.

I'm old enough to associate it with all the crappy Detroit iron of the '50s & '60s. A very little brightwork is OK, but polished or brushed aluminum looks way classier than chrome.

Fake wood trim is just as bad.

Chrome + fake wood + softer suspensions are what formed my negative feelings about SL/GLE Max's. I would never even consider a GLE/SL, and am somewhat dissapointed that my '07 SE has as much chrome as it does (grille surround/roof trim/shifter trim) and the suspension is as soft as it has become.

 

yep.... i did mine last month... over 200.000...

 

are you out of your warrenty it should have been free. as for the other chrome on the car I would have to say no, no, and Hell No!!!!!

 

I'm enjoying the faded trim. Goes so well with the nonfaded trim. Wonder I could get half the door handles in chrome and the other half faded. Seriously though - to each his own.

 

nope, the warranty for the defect was the first year of the car or the 12,000 miles... the fading started happening after my 12,000 point... i took it in around 15,000 and they said nope, i would have to pay...

so i waited untill it was unbareable before replacing them... (last month)

 

....NO!

 

I had 30k on my car when they replaced mine.

 

Way to much!!!!!!!!

 

I had mine replaced on my 05 with 17,000m last week under warranty.

 

I would too. Black would work for me

 

Sounds like a plan. Will try that some day when I finally have a minute for myself. Prolly black with my silver or I'll do matching metallic silver. I have both materials in stock.

I'll post the pics aftern I am done. Now I want to do it this weekend. We'll see

 

I think Im gonna get like chrome handles for the door only. I was thinking of putting some on the spoiler but then I decided to change the spoiler and get one with the LED light on it. I really REALLY like the Maxima with the Lambo Doors though. Where do you get the kit for that at?

 

Those aftermarket pieces just look cheap to me. I have enough chrome with the wheels and roof strips, thank you...

 

Just about every time I've seen a car with chrome trim is WAY overdone and makes it look cheap.

 

on the door handles, but the rest......

 

I think chrome pilars are one of the stupidest and ugliest mods that have ever came out.

 

Personally I think the trim looks fugly...it takes away the "eliite" look of Maxima.
