It looks sort of cheap.  Reminds me of that cheap "chrome" tape that you see in discount store auto sections that goes on the lower half of some trucks.

i'm kinda stuck...basically why i haven't done anything too drastic yet...kinda wanted racing stripes, but everyone has em, plus i'm not really diggin installing them (i could paint em i guess - i can do that), so then i thought i could not do stripes, or do the wide hood ones, and do the chrome rear panel, just cuz i want more chrome, but don't wann over-do it.....hmmm, need to see more MGs that aren't overly pimped lol

it is made of hard plastic though, just like the black and honeycomb ones, but is chrome...addin more plastic to a plastic and beer can metal car [8D]

AmericanICON -> RE: chrome rear (4/27/2008 12:20:18 AM)

If you want more chrome, get some chrome wheels!  I think the black honeycomb insert looks really good.  I'd get it if I didn't already have stripes. 

You're right--alot of people on this website have stripes, but when you're out there on your roads in your town-- you're one of a kind.  I rarely see one in my city with stripes. 

Pantera72 -> RE: chrome rear (4/28/2008 3:34:41 PM)

The chrome panel looks tacky IMO. A black blackout panel will look good with the chrome tail-light bezels. Others have done it and it looks just fine. If you really want my unbiased opinion I would say ditch the chrome tail-light bezels altogether and black the rear out completely. As much as I love chrome, some things just look better with black instead.

I seriously doubt drivers behind you would appreciate their headlights reflecting back at them. It just looks tacky to me. 

Kara -> RE: chrome rear (4/29/2008 2:10:57 PM)

I dont think it looks any more tacky then the black one! 

sxynerd -> RE: chrome rear (4/29/2008 2:37:16 PM)

Black or chrome looks great...

The Potato -> RE: chrome rear (4/29/2008 8:13:14 PM)

looks like an Impala or something

OIIIIO -> RE: chrome rear (4/29/2008 10:21:38 PM)

Mike,
Do you have a pic of your car with the 3d Carbon chin with the stock rockers? Or did you already have the GT take off before the chin?

I may go with that chin but paint it to match a stock rockers.

Hawaiianwells -> RE: chrome rear (5/6/2008 7:27:44 PM)

looks kinda cheap/tacky. i personally love the honey comb panel from Silver Hoarse Racing. (i love it cause i have it)

wolfpup -> RE: chrome rear (5/7/2008 7:08:32 AM)

i have the blackout panel on mine because i have black accents everywhere else minus my silver stripes and like icon said yea alot of ppl on this site have stripes but how many ppl u see on the streets in ur neck of da woods wit stripes??? anyways like i was sayin im doin the black thing and it looks like ur doing the chrome thing.  Hell it definitely stands out and if thats wat u wanna do then do wat u do 2 YOUR car thats what makes it YOURS

landon.moss -> RE: chrome rear (5/7/2008 4:33:57 PM)

actually there's a lot of peeps with stripes around here...quite a few gt 500s and roush models as well (lots of older people with money live around here)....i might still do the chrome rear, but idk yet...think i'm gonna ponder any further appearance mods some more [:D] 

07 Stang -> RE: chrome rear (5/7/2008 6:58:26 PM)

Looks like it would be illegal since the sun could reflect in the drivers eyes behind you.
It's different, but not my cup of tea.

landon.moss -> RE: chrome rear (5/8/2008 5:08:56 PM)

idk you ever get behind stupid chevy pickups or the tractor trailers with polished aluminum rear doors? now those should be illegal lol

theresa -> RE: chrome rear (5/9/2008 5:00:56 AM)

I don't think chrome looks good on anything but rims.  jmo
