Two questions.
1: What is up with the Chrome on all of these cars?
2: If you weren't paying attention, wouldn't you hit it? I mean it does kinda look like nothings there...

1- Chrome is illegal, but I'm guessing it's ok with the VIPs. and this is just foiling, so you can return to the original color.
2- haha, never seen a chromed car in daylight :P

Put it in a museum. The flavor of the month Escalade is way out of style now.
