I'm actually thinking about doing that, and the bottom piece as well, what do you guys think? or should I just stick with doing it in the middle...

Let me know your opinion

greatly appreciated

Hope someone gives it a go though, I'd like to see what it looks like.

Found a plastic Chromer but need to be sure I want to do it as it aint going to be cheap. With the numberplate breaking it up I think it will look good - the VW's pull it off well

See my Sig..... lol !!

An attempt I did after I got it to see how'd it would look, and I'm also currently working on another chopped photo for this colour test reason also...

I'd been keen for that contact to get the vinyl locally in Brissie....

I know you can get chrome vinyl, but I've heard it doesn't like complex bends too much.... if it's professionally installed, it might be OK.

I've been wanting to vinyl mine too, but with a black car, I'm not 100% sure still which colour to use... that Matte Grey perhaps to match the Evo...? Or I've seen a red/black CF vinyl available that would look quite nice... a subtle effect on the front of a black car.

and deesport... I'd say keep what you have there in the centre, and don't o that lower bit on the bumper... just my 10 cents

Tarquin, if I do it I'm going to do it properly there is a plastic chromer in Sydney that can do it for me. So will save up and buy a second centre piece and send it to them to chrome properly - assuming it's not crazy money

The centre piece is integral to the front nose/bumper section though - or are you thinking of getting an EVO insert or something similar to put on the front instead?

Any idea of the chroming on plastic costs - got me intrigued, it might be cheaper than buying the chrome Aspire grille set ($550).
