I love that look, but I dont want to do the work. I cant imagine how much work it must take to keep it looking like that!!

I've always wondered what our cars would look like in all chrome, and now I know.

I think it's pretty neat, but I'm lazy with washing a car... that's just too much work.

I like that... a lot. Ive always wondered what it would look like on a normal car. How much do you think it would cost to get a paintjob like that?

Wouldn't you, when your driving on a sunny day, be blinding like everyone on the road because it's reflecting the sun?? I've always wondered that.

I would think you might just bypass the chrome plating and polish all the stock panels down. Chrome would make the car too heavy and... wait. Ricers don't care about things that hinder actual performance. My bad.

Triple plate that shit! Every last nut and bolt. :thumbsup

yep its paint. i heard it cost alot too. also in some states its illegal and in some ur only allowed to drive it at night. i personally like it and was thinking about doing the same but i'd rather dump my money into my engine since i just finished putting together my turbo kit.

if i was stuck in traffic behind that car on a sunny day i'd be pretty pissed off. that glare would hella suck and be hella fuckin annoyin. yea it looks alright, not my style. flashy red cars are better looking imo
