Does anyone know how to get those boring black bumpers and side bumpers changed to chrome? Not painted grey, but chrome...

Do a search as it has been discussed before.

I hope you are sure as the general opinion of these was - tacky.

Tacky? Oh... I guess you're right... Fine, I'll leave them black...

What colour is your CC ?

If already black then black is fine, if it's an older model then colour code them as it makes a big difference.

i've seen the chromes in the flesh and was actually quite suprised... still, colour coding would be a better investment.

My CC is "Moonstone" or "bluey grey silver" as my friends call it... So chrome might work. But if I was to get them the same colour, can I just pop down to a local reliable spray-painters?

THanks for the advice so far everyone. Really appreciate it...

on a moonstone car I'd definitely stay away from chrome - I've seen a couple with moonstone paint and chrome bumpers and it looks awful. chrome only really works on much darker colours I think

as the others have said though, colour coding makes a world of difference

If your bumpers are coded green then I would leave them

Personally, with the lighter cars, I like the black trim (not biased, honest). I find it breaks the car up nicely.
