[hpe600rt]

just saw this on a car at the dealer what crap it is just very flexable plastic would snap very easy wast of money.looks metal but its not

Looks good though!

[hpe600rt]

it looks better in pics then in person it just looks cheep,and for the coust of the kit its not worth it at all

['Cuda Hunter]

Is it a do it yourself chrome kit?

Or is this a kit that has the parts already chromed?

Unfortunately I give it about 5 car washes before it starts fading/peeling/rubbing off.  I doubt that stuff is any better than what they use on kids' toys these days.

it is a plastic pice very thin plastic with a coating on it to make it look chrome its about as thick as the hood on a kids power wheel.and you just stick it on the car and the rest of the trim is like that stuff people put on the car door edge to stop from ding cars.just very cheap,i agree with viperman  it wouldnt last to long. when i first saw this about a year ago when it came out they wanted alot of cash for it. it looks decent in pics but in person you can tell its very cheap

They were showing those off at Carlisle a couple of years ago. They don't look bad...Except in the old days that was the whole bumper. On the new cars it's just some kind of cap that doesn't work for me. There is still alot of bumper uncovered.

Yeah - I'd have to say that the chrome around the grill (at least on MEK's car) is enough for me.  Us younger folks aren't as much into Chrome these days...

WOW! That's how the factory SHOULD have done it - but with real steel. That looks SWEET!

Lol - wouldn't that just add ANOTHER few hundred pounds for the Challenger to haul around?

Not sure if that is the same company we use but it looks like Retro USA porducts. We carry them as well and have sold a few sets. None of my customers have complained on the qualty in the few months that they have had them.

...on the old cars, we seem to want the rubber bumpers, so Chrysler gave them to us on the new Challenger and some want them chrome...no win

...I wasn't impressed when I saw them, they don't shine like real chrome, more like dull plastic chrome...plus, I figured the first time they took a rock, it would be ruined
