There is this Chrome Bentley that always parks in my parking lot. I think that a Camaro in this color would be awesome! I wonder what the best way to do this to a Camaro would be? Any thoughts?

i have to admit, that's pretty damn cool.

i'm sure someone could photoshop one!

I've always liked the look of all chrome cars...but would NEVER want one because imagine how hot that sucker would be in the dead of summer.

I'm actually kinda surprised that it's legal due to the possibility of blinding other drivers (and yourself...off of the hood).

Wow! That is amazing. I don't know about the Camaro though. Actually, any color whether it's matte black, chrome, or even chocolate brown would look good on a Camaro. But personally, I wouldn't do it.

i was thinking of something like that on my camaro since i was repainting it. but i was never a fan of chrome its self. i was thinking like a chrome orange now that would have looked good.

Believe it or not, it looks a lot better in person!

Looks like a cheap HotWheel toy car to me. But if you like it, that's all that matters.

there is a company from germany that makes a chrome paint for professional painters, I know it is extremely expensive.

peele1 · 07-20-2010, 09:24 AM

I think it looks cool!

linkwpc · 07-20-2010, 09:25 AM

It would make me sad :(

Actually it probably wouldn't be hot at all. The chrome would reflect the heat from the sun rather than absorb it like black or other dark colours.

I think it looks really cool, but somehow I don't think I'd ever want to own one. Black is hard enough to keep clean haha

I think it would be cool and stand out. I couldn't imagine trying to keep the hand and finger prints off though.

(I meant hot to the touch...not the inside of the car).
