Mel90 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Hey Guys, So I'm looking at dechroming my Fiesta and I've decided to get the chrome wrapped however I'm unsure on whether to get it wrapped black or go for a cheeky red colour as I'm not sure if the red would look nice or not! What do you guys think? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Lanc Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 All depends what the colour of your car is! What year is the car ? Personally I love chrome I'm an old guy compared to young studs on here...lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel90 Posted June 23, 2016 Author Share Posted June 23, 2016 It's a black 2011 I've seen others dechromed and they look better in my opinion of course! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L22EEW Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 The only 1 thing I've currently de-chromed is the boot lift trim (took me months to find the panel, but was worth it): 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My car is the same as yours a Titanium, so has enough (personally think just the right amount) chrome on it as it is...

Mel90 Posted June 27, 2016 Author Share Posted June 27, 2016 Thanks for everyones help and opinions the chrome is deffo going to be wrapped just unsure of whether to be brave and go for something different like red or just having it black (which is the same colour as my car).

Believe it or not, I have thought about doing red along the chrome (sides of doors) - but yet to do it. Hmmmm!
