Firebird Lack Chrome I have been noticing that alot of parts on firebird are not sold in chrom aka door handels, gas tank, side body stripe above the firebird letters. And whats weird about it is they offer these parts therre usually decals. Anyone else getting frustrated over this or is chrome not the style?

Less is more. If you want to accent it thats cool but don't go overboard. Chrome emblems are nice, but chrome molding and door handles would be silly. Do a little research and get a theme going don't just buy everything off the shelf that comes in chrome.
Accent is the key word through all of my sentences.
