Red face Guys, I need your opinion!

I just bought some chrome door handles, should I get the chrome trunk lid too? Would that be like a sore thumb, too much chrome?

Should I just leave the rear alone? Chrome lid costs about $40-$50, too much?

Here's what my car looks like as of now, door handles are still on the way, NOT installed yet, will update pics when I got them.

He is asking for our opinion. Sometimes people need 3rd person opinions to make certain decisions.


@GT-R

if your going for Luxury look i would say yes go for it. go put the chrome TSH grill too IMO.

let me guess your trying to make it look like lammy's and njeralds car.

the only thing i would not suggest is putting Lexus Emblems on your Toyota.
that's TRYING TOO HARD!

Okay, thanks Jan for your opinion. But, will that go with my black valence though?

Oh yea, I was gonna put a Mercedes-Benz emblem on it, like V12 Biturbo... LOL

I know Lammy will jump in and slap my ass...

I think it depends on what theme you're going for.
At the moment, I would say leave it alone. The excess of chrome doesn't go well with the steelies.

Why not just look at Lammydi's? You seem to be going for the same look he does.

You've seen my car in person. You can put those on, chrome handles and trunk lids won't be too much.
Just don't put those chrome pillars (I made that mistake before).
And never put on those chrome eyellids, tail lights, gas cap or I will borrow Peach's turbo camry to chase you down and slap you around for fun.
