Chrome delete questions/opinions wanted

[DirtyDave]

These pics were taken before I redid the front badge and before I got my Vossen wheels.

I love how that looks. Any shots from the back? (Did you do anything to the back?)

Nothing was done in the rear except taillight tint.. I do have a matte black M&S diffuser though. Still need to do something with exhaust tips. Not sure if I will paint/wrap or go aftermarket tips.

It was done by a professional shop, not sure which brand/type of wrap they used.

Most likely it's 3m or Avery

Now that you mention it I think it was 3M.

I hope 3M have a good satin grey I can use that'll work well with the upper grille but I have had thoughts of just doing gloss black hmmm

How much did they charge you for the wrap?

How much did they charge you for the wrap?

$600. That included side mirrors, window trim, front grilles (including bumper removal), side brake vents, the thin pieces on the front vents and hood vents and amber delete on headlights.

I paid 600 including the roof, pillars, sideview mirrors, side vents, both grille sections and antenna

Very happy with my chrome delete. Got tired of all the water spots while maintaining too.
Some before and after shots...

Your chrome delete came out great! I’m looking to do the same in the near future. Did you wrap the trim yourself? Do you recommend a specific brand or type of vinyl?

Did you just do gloss black? Got any other angles?

Sorry for the delayed reply.

Yes, I used gloss black on all of the factory "chrome" trim. Powdercoat was used on the wheels and exhaust tips. The wheel caps were also painted and the lenses were all done in a charcoal candy then cleared. Here are some other angles.

I'm an old guy but, when did chrome become a no and the all black Mad Max look take over?
One more time......I'm an old guy (60's muscle car days) Only those who had bad interior/exterior trim or corroded, rusty wheels would paint them black. Chrome, polished alum. or mags were king back then. Long live the King.

If you like the chrome, then all the power to ya! Funny to me that you would own a Stinger. So much more raw character from the old muscle cars!!

I'm an old guy (68) and I hate the look of chrome. I don't think its an age thing as much as it just personal taste. No right or wrong, you do you and I'll do me.

I look forward to seeing how you personalize your Stinger.

Does anyone have a picture of a carbon fiber hood on a ceramic silver? I want a functionally vented hood but I don't know if I'm sold on carbon fiber.
