Im not sure if i like all the chrome on the tsx. On the side windows and on the door handles. Went to a local body shop said it woul be couple hundred bucks to paint the chrome to match the car. Wondering what you guys think about it also if any one has done it before and if i can have some pics. Thanks

you can get the all black trim from heeltoe. i think it looks a lot better with the black trim. not a big fan of chrome.

I'm not sure what happened to it but he still have some and they are around $400-500. I personaly like the chrome door handles and window trim..It gives more luxury looks.

some ppl used a black-out tape to cover the window chrome trim. It looked perfectly. You'd have to search for that though. I don't remember where I've seen it.

I am with you, I Really like the chrome. Just enough, not enough to be gaudy. Daphne is so sweet, I am very fortunate to be able to possess such a car. :thumbsup: .

yea, the chrome definitely gives it that luxurious feel. Its subtle and not plastered all over the car so I think its just the right touch
