Default Mark...he tried it, but in the end

he didn't like the look once he put it on. He used some kind of hobby modeler's translucent black to get teh black chrome look. it matched the trim around the side windows i'm told..but i never got to see it in person...if you want the name of the spray i think i have it in an old email somewhere. also, make sure to follow with clear coat on top of the tint spray....
bageldog and kent (IIRC also tried it)

But, if Toyguy is doing some of that at work, he might find some extra space on the tray =)
