I decided on the chrome/polished look for the trim and bumpers. If I end up not liking them then I will redo them.

Good choice John. Build the car for you. I am doing brushed nickel. Be unique. I think the all black on black on black on black theme is worn out.

I really think the chrome/black issue is age related. Youngsters like the black murdered look, the grey haired guys like the chrome bling look. I know, there are exceptions to every rule!
