Nice, very nice.
What was your M.O. for the gas cap and the door handles?

I've been a bit on the fence about totally dechroming, but slowlly over the years have blacked out the car. First a Joey mod, then painted the headlight rings, added an aero grill and covered the tails with ruby red tint. Last Friday I was at one of our other stores waiting for a meeting, and found out they had recently got some equipment to do powder coating, 15 minutes later I had the oem rally lights off and disassembled and had the fellas powder coat them black.

I have been slowly removing chrome too, but am on the fence about going over to total blackout.
