Terminator 5: Return of John Conner ? lmao.

I seen a episode of West Coast Customs and they made a Audi R8 with a Tron (movie) theme with beyond custom chrome paint, **** looked TOO RAW imo.

I saw that on Camaro5 a few weeks ago...**** is bad *** man. Normally I would think it's too flashy/blingy, but on a 5th gen it simply looks incredible.

Not any hotter than an all black car.
You guy's gotta realize, they didn't actually Chrome the car out. It's just a vinyl like decal that's got a chrome-look to it.

I believe that is illegal in the states. I was thinking about doing this a while back, something similar, and I seem to recall a law that prohibits reflective surfaces like chrome on a whole car, and of course the tint is illegal.

I really would like to do a car like that though, at night it would almost look like an invisible car, just reflecting everything around it.

I think it looks cool... But it would prob be the biggest PITA to clean...

My uncle owns a body shop in CA thats called Chrome Collision. He's painting his 08 Avalanche chrome.
