Taillight hack..?
Thanks Lanny, if my NA ever needs to visit the body shop, I now know what to
do with it! Too funny!!! Anyway, the Simpson Design thing looks like it could be done with a can of glossy spray paint. Maybe experiment with a Sharpie, first. Altezza is Altezza, chrome, carbon, whatever -- never liked that look and I chuckle at all these new Lexus' and Nissan's that sport this look. It's like Pontiac with the freakin' Testa Rosa plastic down the sides for all those years. It'll die off eventually (we can only hope). My two cents -- I like the polishing idea....
