Too Much Chrome?

[tainopayute]

I never did like the flat black plastic look the C-pillars on the hatch has. So, not being exactly sure of what I really wanted to do to remedy that, I went out and got these...

Any opinions?

Only think I might suggest is taking a piece of shiny black vinyl and tapering off the forward edge of the chrome door panel.

That way instead of this vertical line right where the rear window ends, you have a gradual slope toward the roof.

It's funny you say that because I was thinking about doing exactly that... yeah, I think I'm going to do that. Thanks TheGreenDragon.

Looks sharp! The chrome and wheel combo all ties together nicely

I'd like to see a much closer pic of that chrome applied to the C pillar area.

Are those actual chrome replacement handles?

I think chrome would be 1000 times more durable than the flat black plastic...regardless of looks.

It does seem like chrome b pillar would tie it together. It going vinyl maybe a black and chrome style..

Regardless you won't have the rusting and peeling black trim like on many Hondas. I saw a bmw in the parking lot the other day and the black window trim was all discolored..it was a newer model.. it seemed ruined.

Get some Wipe New or ReNu Finish for the black plastic.

Did the tire shop actually put weights on the OUTSIDE!?!?! They should NEVER do that, they should use the tape weights, it will still zero out for balance.... just sayin, other than that it looks good [emoji106]

No, what looks like weights on the outside of the wheels is actually a design that the wheels have.

The chrome on the C-pillars are pieces that stick over the rear door handles. They are made of abs plastic.
