Blacking out a black car
Can some of you advise on what's the best and least expensive way to black out the chrome on the grill, wheel well light reflectors, badges etc. etc.. and where to get all that? I know RPI offer a few of those things but any other suggestions? I also want to lower it, where would you take it for that a tire shop, dealer??
Thanks!
Thanks!

Call Jeff Nowicki at Nowicki Auto Sports. Thats where I got my carbon flash black piece that covers up the ugly silver bar in the front grille. Thats a good start. Others will have more suggestions. Kinda wish I too would have gone "all black" right down to black wheels. But I didn't. Live and learn. Oh, I have a suggestion for your custom liscense plate. Since the cars all black go with: "BLK WDOW". You'll figure that one out.

search is your friend, lots of threads about this.
To black out, RPI is good, or spray it.
Blacking out the badges, front strip? RPI is good again. Other choices are plasti-dip or DIY. Lowering? DIY or tire shop. How to is in the stickys. Search, Search, Search. All the answers are there.

I had the window tint installed and the guy did the side markers with something different that was made for outside. I covered the front bar with outside black vinyl . My daughter makes stickers for outside. The total cost was about $160 for all. I am going to leave the emblems like they are to match the wheels.
