not a permanant feature yet, need to get some late mode 940 trim to meet up with the rear end of rear arches, try to imagine it with the car sprayed black or silver.

I can't so as far to say hot but I will say, for your car, I think it will look good.
Not a big fan of chrome but there is something about your car that allows it. Does that make any sense?
Sort of gives it a clean classic look.

I say..do whatcha wanna.

Sweet ride by the way. Always love seeing it.

I"m normally against those but you can pull it off - might as well try it for a bit and see if you like it (which is all that matters in the end)

This is not an old Merc owned by a pikey, so.................... no!

Peel them off and send them back to Thailand!

It just draws attention to the wheel arches, which is not a good thing.

Dump it on spinnnaaazzzzzzzzz and it might fit, but then your car would be on spinnnaaaazzzz. :-(

but the arches are soooo dented and scratched.... this will cover them up, what about if i paint them the body colour?

I would have to go with "not" as well. But maybe you can throw up a pic with a more normal angle?

Couldn't hurt to see it I guess.

Until you paint them though.......:-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-(

I think everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but that looks like straight $hit.

There's no chrome trim on your car is there? Besides the grill? Get the chrome door handles and some of the trim pieces to go with it and chrome wheels and maybe... Although the fitment looks funny on those.. There are stock ones on the 760's. And black with chrome arches and trims/wheels would look tight.

If you're going to paint them, paint them your trim color which is black. Yeah?

Silver in my not so humble opinion looks best w/ black trim :twisted:

no chrome trim at all


just the grey window trim and roof gutter.

Well whatever you go with. Be consistent. My neighbor's got an orange mercury with blacked out trim, body color wipers, chrome wheel arches and muffler tips oh and silver tint! :???:

eesh. all you need now are 13" turtle wheels and some of that rainbow glitter spray paint and you'd be rawkin the full-on mexi-style.

i vote not, but if body colo(u)red they'd look pretty good...

Yea, Right

Riding around in your jeep or your benzos
Or in your nissan stting on lorenzos


but then again, I'm also love this:


Then six o’clock rolls around
You just finished wiping your car down
It’s time to cruise so you head to the summertime hangout
It looks like a car show
Everybody come lookin real fine
Fresh from the barber shop or fly from the beauty salon
Every moment frontin and maxin
Chillin in the car they spent all day waxin
Leanin to the side but you can’t spead through
Two miles an hour so everybody sees you
There’s an air of love and of happiness
And this is the fresh prince’s new defintion of summer madness

Try painting them "trim Black", although that may just make it look like a huge fender gap.....

Chrome for teh lose... well, on 80's and 90's cars I'd say...

I had some Chrome trims on the arches of my 360, the car looks infinitely better without them on the side thats been sprayed.
