can't say its my thang either honestly and I was imagining the reflection on it it just seemed cool. I only got to install one of those and thankfully it was in an expidition, took up most of the rear floor. Its just such a large canvas to put something on the stock stuff always made it look even bigger. I still vote for the old team phoenix gold logo would look killer on it.

it would be bad-ass on top of chrome but also over the top.... White would be good too.

I think plated and then with some cool logo would just put it in a league all in its own myself. Just picture the sun hittin that bitch and reflecting like a 3ft long mirror with the design in the reflection...

my only complaint with black chrome is that it is even more difficult to keep looking nice then regular chrome. I can show you what the oils on your hands can do to the finish in just a couple of days if you want. All of my battery terminals are black chrome now and I never handle them/touch them with out then polishing them/cleaning them. NEVER>>>>>>

Mike,

I too like the thought of black Chrome, but MY first choice would be carbon fiber. I loved the look that one other member did to his in the carbon fiber.
