i need some opinions from you guys/
 
im very very close to spraying the 68/i just bought the rs grille headlight conversion from belairbob.what a great guy he is but thats for another thread.i just put the grille in the car for fitment before paint.i also put the marquez lights in the valance.what i need opinions on is should i paint the little bit of chrome trim around the grille black?or leave it alone/my car will have no other chrome on car/tailights,door handles ,gas filler,ect ect will all be brushed aluminum.i do kinda like the look now but im wondering if the all black would be slicker?what are your guys thoiughts on this?the car looks a little crooked because the front tires are different sizes.thank you everyone for your input.

On our black 68, we left the chrome finish around the edge.. It looks good and breaks up the black a bit without being overbearing.. You shipment left on tuesday, but I dont have the tracking # yet... But, it did leave...

Got to agree. Mine is all blacked out and it's a bit too much black.

The only thing I regretted was ordering the Chrome Drier for the Air conditioning.. I ordered it before I had the overall direction of the build.

My opinion....don't paint it!

Perhaps repaint the bright areas with a flat silver to match your brushed parts?
