Has anyone blacked out their chrome pieces?
I am curious if anyone can share photos of their GS350 with the chrome piece around the upper grille painted or wrapped in black.

I used Plasti-Dip, so if I don't like it I can peel it off. Here's my flickr gallery w/ pics. http://www.flickr.com/photos/53824708@N04/

@djpeak, I PM'd you back.
Can't you guys see my pics in the Flickr album? Also, with Plast-Dip, it's a coating not a spray paint. Meaning you can peel/rub off any excess or overspray. You can get more info at DipYourCar.com, they have videos and all explaining this stuff. I personally got my supplies from them, but I also believe Home Depot carries it. It's like $5-7 a can, and I bought 4 cans. I did all the Plasti-Dipping on my car with 2 1/2 cans. Instead of spending a couple hundred bucks on wrap, spend around $30 for all the Plasti-Dip and supplies you'll need, and if you don't like it you can peel it off. Also, the BEAUTY of Plasti-Dip is that since it's a coating it literally bonds to all the edges and contours of what your trying to spray. Therefore, it literally cuts itself as your pulling away the excess to create the perfect lines. Watch the vids on the site mentioned and you'll understand.
