Has to be the chrome paint...look under the hood...why would you paint the underside black. Also look at the inner fenders.

Also, it would be HUGELY cost prohibitive to chrome large panels like that...and not have them warp. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

LOL...what a waste... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

Glad to see that they used their chroming expertise under the hood as well http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

They should have added some bedazzle stones to it and taken it to SEMA... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
