I was cleaning the chrome on my car today and realized that my car needs more chrome. I like how shiny chrome is. How come most cars don't come with much chrome?

Chrome is nice on older cars with more classic cuts.  I don't like chrome on the newer sleeker models.  If it were a black vehicle I'd rather have black powdercoat then chrome.

Probably not a scratch or dent anywhere on that truck. Perfect rig for that trek to the nearest Starbuck's.

This is very close to my last car: A 1964 Thunderbird in Britanny Blue, although I had the hardtop that didn't have that goofy S bar:

All that I have left are some pics and the silver keychain.  [:(]

darkhelmet, what are you thinkin? did you actually wax that, it loks pretty shiny. starbucks is right.

i wouldn't waste my money chroming a 4x4. that doesn't look like any woods truck ive ever seen.

make sure you don't run the grocery cart into the hi-lift.

if i were to build (not buy, great 4x4's are built not bought) a 4x4 i would spray paint the thing black. the whole thing. and i would eithter remove the chrome or paint over it.

chrome is for street.

honestly man, jokes aside, i be afraid/sad if i scratched that. and if i saw it on the trail i'd laugh at you under my breth for being a wannabe.

i'm not flaming just saying that your truck is too *clean* to be a 'wheeler.
