Default Its different

Some cars yes, most NO!! That means I don't need to see a "chromed out" Chevy Aveo. I've seen a few P-shop pics but there are a few real monochromes out there. We'll see just how far they go with this movement.

Very clean Must be a real PITA to clean it though. But then again if you can afford to do it you probably don't clean you own cars

Now are these chromes jobs or chrome-like paint?
Or are they polished aluminum?

Chrome would make some of these cars weigh too much.

It's wierd enough on street cars, but on RACE cars? On a sunny days this will blind not only the driver but other drivers as well.

It's cool as being like a novelty or show car but I personally wouldn't do that to my ride.
