    Default 95 front chrome strip replacement

    Was browsing around and found this for all you '95 guys with faded chrome strips:

    They also apparently have them in black too.

    $43 for the chrome, $16 for the black

    Thats a bit expensive for the chrome strip, not to mention its just for the front bumper. I ripped mine off awhile ago and cleaned it, looks good as new. I think you can even paint it to whatever color you want. Just sand, prime, paint(two coats or more), and clear coat. I'd think it be much cheaper than buying a replacement strip(s).

    What do you guys think about a black bumper strip on a teal contour? I thought about it but never had the balls to do it.

    Yea, I did that in photoshop but I'm just not to sure. I'd have to get somewhat matching rims (black or gunmetal) to make the theme work.
