They must be some kind of aftermarket covers that stick on. No way someone would "chrome" door frames. PM me a close up and ill see what you have. Its gotta be on there with 2way tape.

They also sell these http://www.tcpglobal.com/autobodydep...temno=AST+400E. They go on a drill and you use the thin edge to remove the glue. Its basically a giant round eraser, they work great.

Since its metal you should be fine just cant use them on plastic. Once you strip it down you can black out the chrome and add some black vinyl for a different look. Or paint it like Im going to.

Agreed. I think the right shade of bronze or copper would look great.

Black is played out. Your car is too nice a color to do it that injustice.
