Found this online. Anyone tried this before? Seems like a neat way to go on a budget.

For the real deal, IE CHROME, there is only ONE way that I'm aware of, and that involves $$$.

I wonder how it would look with bumpers chromed the car color, kind of like the elastomeric but shiny.

There's a place that does wraps near here that has a Grand Cherokee that's "Chrome" wrapped.

It's not really my thing, but I was thinking that someone that has fiberglass bumpers could get them to look like "Chrome" if the had them wrapped like that.

I've been thinking about having the lower part of my car wrapped in a satin black.
I don't care too much for the silver and like the look of the lower part being black like a 69 GTX.

I could just paint it but since it's still the original paint I kinda hate to do that.
I'd add the red reflective pinstripe too.
If I had it wrapped black I could remove it at a later date if I chose to.

There is no deep luster with vinyl. You might get lucky with gloss colors but I think its too....Dubai-Sheikh-ish

How about water transfer chrome on to your bumper and then apply a clear coat to it...why even chrome...why not body color or some wicked design?
