so the chrome trim has spots and a section of one side along the body has turned black. it will be a while (maybe 1 yr) before i start having body work done so in the meantime i figure on painting the chrome.

i was thinking hi-gloss silver.
someone suggested high-gloss black but it seems like there is a silver-blue tint and i don't think the blue would work with the current car color.
nothing really fancy just a decent temporary fix.

i just checked and Dupli-Color has an 'Instant Chrome' product.
or maybe paint all the chrome black (not high-gloss)
or the top chrome black and the bottom chrome
they also have a color-changing silver/green product.
that might be nice.

i dunno - open to suggestions.

have had a lot of under the hood engine work done since i want to keep the car so thanks for any advice.
