What kind of paint is that? Did you have to do much prep work to the chrome?

First off thanks for the compliments! After I popped off the chrome strip I lightly sanded down the chrome with 180 gritt sand paper. 2 coats of gray primer, 4-5 coats of black, 2-3 coats of clear coat. Maybe I over did it but it looks good at least! -Stu

Heh, nah, I kinda like the chrome contrast on mine. But it's obvious that everybody has their own and very differing opinions about what to do with the rear reflector. I do think it looks nice though, good job

looks good
I've seen this done now on a t-red, silver and black.
I think it looked nice on all of them except the silver.
It looks so fugly on the silver.
