Chrome No More-Body matched vinyl
So I got all the chrome on my car covered up. Personal choice as I'm sure some like it. I like clean, smooth uninterrupted lines on my cars so I have accomplished this by having pin stripes removed and all chrome covered up. I tried to come up with similar angles and light but I failed... Pics below

Looks a lot better. Chromes look cheap. May I know the cost?

Went to a local tint/wrap shop who did the whole car for $300. It's 3M vinyl which should last "7-10 yrs" but honestly I don't care if I have to replace every two years. The reason I tried to get the paint match was black would have looked goofy on the door handles and the trunk nub piece.
