Cheaper than buying chrome tips. It took about 40 minutes and a little elbow grease. All in all, I think it came out pretty good.

Default It'll last through the summer no problems...

just a little bit of washing it here and there to keep it clean. Mines not quite as shiny after the winter cause I really let it go, but it wouldn't take as much work as the first time to bring it back.
