The Plasti-dip holds up and doesn't chip or scratch if it's spayed on right (with a spray gun). Myself, I wouldn't put vinyl "stickers" (which is what vinyl basically is) on a 50 thousand dollar car. But to each his own. If the plasti-dip doesn't seem like a way anyone would like to go then I'd do it right and get the chrome pieces painted correctly by a professional paint shop.

Problem is without painting it (not that Dip-crap) it's hard to cut it perfectly. I'm having mine redone for the same reason and I explained to the guy... "Would you wrap your car like this?"
Just get it redone again. Don't get overly upset, I get lifetime warranty on this stuff and if THEY are at fault.... why should you pay?

Its not professional to say you can take on a job to the customers satisfaction and not deliver as promised. and its even more unprofessional to damage a customers car in the process and only offer $100 refund. If the shop didnt think they could do the job, they should not have tried to do it plain and simple. I denied the $100 and took it up with my credit card company.
