I know it won't be to everyone's taste but I decided to rid my car of the little amount of chrome on it as it didn't seem to "fit".

I cheated and used plastidip so when I sell, or decide I don't like it, I can just peel it off.

Forgive the dirty car, I only cleaned the areas to be painted so I could properly ensure dry surfaces. I'll wash it once it's cured...

Very nice. Plasti dip is lovely to work with. Lacquer it for a longer life!

Is the logo raised so you can still see it, or is it just a black circle now?

You can just see the logos embossed through the paint up close, very slightly raised (the new style badge would be better) . I've since peeled the paint from the rear skoda badge off as it looked odd I thought. I like the front and two rear badges though so will leave them.

Thanks for the tip, I fully intend on removing it all at some point so if I went for a clear coat/lacquer I'd look for a plasti dip compatible one. I think they do one, I just don't want to affect peeling.

I can't help thinking the rear lights look too bright and "happy" now though.

Weather was crap on Sunday so didn't get around to the wash ...

MattGreen maybe this is of interest to you?

Thanks for that. I don't think I'll embellish this time though. I am planning to black out my wheel centres though.
