Finished getting rid of all of the chrome
So I finally got rid of the random chrome accent on the exterior (minus the door lock but eh I'll live). Here's the list of the changes/replacements:
Black Painted Taillight Bezels Black Painted SS Emblems with Red Vinyl Overlays Gary's Custom Red/Black Bumblebee Style Bowties Emblempros' Black Camaro Fender Badges Black Tinted Reverse Lights Black Tinted Turn Signals Black Tinted DRLs Black Tinted AAC LED Side Markers     Looks pretty good if I do say so myself. Added a few more things for style as well. The only things left that I plan to do are to paint the lower lip of the front bumper black and possibly powder coat the wheels black. Whatcha think?

 I actually added some small bits of chrome to Cliffy. The backup light bezels, and the running light bezels. I think it looks pretty good. That is not to say the black on RedRyder doesn't look good. I think it is quite well done.

 The exhaust system is going to be replaced soon with the Flowmaster cat back which has chrome tips.I'm weighing the idea of painting the new tips though I might just leave it. I don't mind chrome exhaust tips so much. |

So I got my Flowmaster AMT cat back and decided to go ahead and paint the tips black (as opposed to the chrome they came in).
After a good amount of sanding and some coats of high heat semi-gloss black paint, I'm happy with the results. They are going on tomorrow
