Please no. I didn't even like chrome when chrome was popular... (Could be the reason I only find sport bikes attractive...)

Let's just make the whole car chrome-painted carbon fiber so it weighs nothing but its ridiculously shiny.

I love chrome. I'd rock a totally chrome Camaro.

I'd do a hideaway headlight mod if it became available.

when I checked, several years ago, the Dupont ChromaLusion paint was upwards of $130 a pint

I actually did that to some of my cars on a Need for Speed game. They look tight.

If GM quiets them down as much as the Corvette, I'm thinking an after market exhaust should be the first order business.

Chromatic Paint

$130 a pint, well that would explain it but its sure a sweet color, The Chrome actually looks black at certain angles and other colors like red and blue look brilliant.

Thanks for the Info !!!

This bird has Chromatic Paint, not my choice since it looks like several colors but a nice conservative color would be sweet

THAT is a gorgeous color. Combines two of my favorite colors (teal and DARK purple) nicely.

I wont know if I'm doing any external mods until I see the production model...

But for internal mods: I want to replace the cup holder with a touch screen. It'd be connected to a computer with all my music on it. I think it'd look pretty wicked.

Ill drop it and toss on some nice wheels, possibly painted calipers if I dont get the red brembos.

Besides that maybe just a grill and some stripes if they arent a factory option.
