    chrome bumpers with blacked out window chrome?

    story- so i have an 87 325. the previous owner got the whole car repainted black. by whole car i mean everything. so bumpers and window chrome are now black. the other day i hit some lady (not a person walking but a lady's car) (her fault) and messed up the front bumper. so i went and bought a new chrome bumper

    SO MY QUESTION IS, if i put chrome bumpers back on my car (front and back) would it look good or would it look stupid since the chrome around my windows has been blacked out? Keep in mind my car is black.

    if anyone has an opinion i would love to hear it. or if you know someone or have a car that has chrome bumpers but blacked out window trim if you could post a picture that would be awesome

        The DB cars really pop with the OE anodized aluminum trim and some shiny wheels.

                Since putting on the Ronals I only have a couple of cell phone shots I took in the driveway. It looks much better in person.

                  that looks awesome i love it. idk if i can get away with doing that without the chrome around the windows. Btw i did already replace the side molding on the doors with the black and chrome trim

                    I'd say as long as you have the chrome strip on the door trim, the bumpers would look good, because there would be a clean line around the car. Go for it I say, I love DB's always no matter what forever love.
