I painted the rear reflector and the plastic trim holding the diffuser silver.

Looks neat, but I liked the de-badged look on the rear.
Your headlights are so clean.

Its holding up very well..i used the gunmetal spray over the 'chrome' for a dark-chrome effect, and its more durable than just the 'chrome' by itself.
