    When is it too much chrome?

    i really dont want to be laughed at,but i think im having a chrome attack,that might lead into a broke attack,once u put that one little chrome accesory,i might as well dip the whole car in chrome,hey that sparks up an idea.all over fun in 2012 061.jpg

    It's your car, do what you want. If you think it's too much chrome, then it's too much chrome.

    Personally, not a chrome fan. Don't even like it much on Harley's. But if it makes you happy and you can stand the glare, go for it!

    If you want to amplify years of negative stigma towards Miata owners, have at it!

    I think if you want something unique, a brushed metallic look would be interesting.

    Just order everything from the Moss catalogue. They've got you covered!

    Chrome is for Peterbilts and pre-1990's autos in my opinion, but scratch the itch if you must.

    No one cares if you dipped your entire car in chrome. I'll just shut my eyes and wish you were dead for such horrible taste.


    Should my judgments influence your decisions? Absolutely not.


    Someone who asks these questions clearly hasn't found themselves or is trying to fit in. That's not what this is about.


    If you end up throwing chrome on everything, that's cool.. do it.

    I'll hate you and your car though.

    Sharka's interior is a testament to having a lot of chrome work without being tacky.

    PO for my '99 put a ton of chrome accents on the interior. Basically ordered everything out of the moss catalog. At first I didn't really care for it, but it ended up growing on me. Haven't added anything but also haven't taken anything off.

    All that to say I second others. It's your car
