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. emoji

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.
