I chopped my photo, what I did was colour code the door handles, and colour black the window surround which is normally chrome, I debadged the v6 above the indicator and lowered it.
The chrome stuff on my car just does'nt seem to suit the colour so I am open to suggestions.

The original photo and chopped one.

To me it doesnt look good.

Definately lower and debadge it... Not too sure about the chrome around the doors. But definately leave the door handles as they are :thumbsup: Nice work though!

color code the door handles.... thats something i'll be doing inthe future... :D
and get looks good without the chrome....

Hahah - stop trying to look like a TL :D

I must admit - thats one of my main loves of the TL - NO CHROME!

car looks flat without the chrome highlights.
the chrome goes with the wheels.

it looks great without the chrome handles.

Definately looks better lowered (though you didn't center it properly :P). Wouldn't get rid of the chrome though, just doesn't look right. Debadge is good too :).

If you had darker rims, it would look good without the chrome. it just looks like something is missing.

+1 for goes with wheels as is

looks very nice without the chrome, definatly unique on that type of car, id say get some qoutes and get it done, looks awesome :thumbsup:

IMO - I like the no-chrome look. Makes it look tuff!

But tint the side indicator as well.

and lower the car and it will look great :) :D

Yeah thanks guys, I think I will do it, looks more stealth.

Cheers.

well the tj's come stock wif out the sh!t chrome, except on the door handles, so i think it is a good idea

let us know how ya go, i think i may do it, how tya gonan do it??

I have done it once before, lightly sand the chrome stuff so it is scuffed up a bit, applied gloss black straight over it, it never came off.
But this time I am thinking a primer as well, and I might go for matt black paint instead, so it looks like plastic.

wouldnt the door handles from a TL fit on a TJ anyways??? or is it one of the few things they changed dramatically???
