There's a chrome wrapped LFA that rolls around in my city:





IMO, I like the standard coloured ones better but that chrome 3IS is very nice.

Don't mean to thread jack but as some of you know by now... I've been known to wrap my car in crazy colors, including, orange, matte red, matte green, gloss lime green and even green chrome. Here are some pics of the green chrome in progress. Didn't like it as it was way to reflective. You literally couldn't even look at it in the sun because it was that bright.

have you ever looked into black chrome? I think a black chrome wrap is sick! I'm not much for chrome wrapping itself because it is so reflective but black chrome kind of has a matte look to it as well so I think it looks really good. Saw black chrome on an M3 before and it looked really good imo

I've never looked into black chrome but I am planning on re wrapping my car yet again next month. I'll look into black chrome for sure as it does have a really nice color effect when it's in the direct sunlight and at night.

If you have money to throw away and don't take the car seriously, then I say, "why not wrap it in foil"?

There was a Chrome Lexus from Europe... Looked dope but dang the attention you'd get in the states... Well I don't think a fully chromed out vehicle would be even legal here.
