thanks i started off with the chrome theme but now im kinda bored with it and leaning towards black, now im gonna black out the emblems get rid of the chrome on the handles and maybe the pin striping the silver however will have to stay for now exspecially since i just paid 600 to have some body work on the botom of the doors due to rust
