OOPS!!!! No More Chrome!!!!

looks good, im not a big fan of too much chrome, you ever consider getting rid of the reflectors on the front bumper?

No. I like the reflectors. They blened in better with the chroms strips. Now, they do seem a bit out of place. But I like them and plan to keep them.:)
 
Wow big improvement! Looks way better ever think of blacking out the chrome around the windows with some black vinyl??

Those will be painted next winter, when I do the doors and custom paint.
 
Personally I like it equally both ways. Looks really clean and flushed painted. But the Chrome also makes the Rims Pop.
Great look either way

now i am in no way of saying that you need to get rid of them, but what does everybody think about spray tinting them, but instead of mixing black paint with clear coat, how about mixing body color with clear? do you think it would be possible to spray it thick enough so that it wouldn't stick out too much from the rest of the bumper, but also be sprayed thin enough for light to still pass through(it is a really weak light).

ive seen this done to tail lights before, but it was clear/chrome lenses on a silver car so the paint didnt have to be anywhere near as thick as it would to match a dark red car.

Oh yeah. Could definitely spray a "light" coat of Autumn Red over then and still have the light shine through.
 
I think your LS looks better without the chrome. I am not a fan or the chrome trim. I am, however, a fan of your LS. I cant wait to see it in STL next year.
