Uhhgg,, the suspense has been killer. I think I like it quite a bit, and the close up pics on the previous page look good.

But I really wanna see some pics like 30ft away then we can get a better idea of how it looks overall on the car..

Black chrome should be very nice though, interested in how that turned out as well.

Damnit Brian I don't know what's going on with people nowadays. I'm still waiting on my last 2 Scaras to come in the mail. It's like we're all playing the waiting game!

ok so i tried to get some pictures to show the imperfections but it was hard to get them on picture. the Green arrow is a "dent" or a "dimple" and the Red arrow is what i would consider "fisheyes" or "runs". it seems after they dechromed it they didnt prep it before rechroming it
