I think polished...goes with the headlight bezels, grille, etc. But thats my opinion. nice work by the way. I love the big n' little tire/wheel combo.

Your paint job looks incredible man-I prefer the black then again polished does match everything else. I understand your confusion.

Are you going chrome or black handles?

I say go black and spray the inside of the grill black. Especially if those covers for the lights are going to be smoked or black outs

Whats going on with the hood to fender gaps? Im guessing its just
not all tightened down and lined up yet.

Looks great though

Have chrome handles now but just bought black to see if they look better. I am going to paint the grill red like the car to see if I like that these are my head light covers

I think Red with the middle black and those would look bad ass. Did you make those? They look amazing!

I like both myself. the black gives it that mean look, but the chrome classes it up.
What are you planning with the side windows? They would need to match the other trim

Those are my exact thoughts, I would have all the trim the same color. I think I want to look mean to match the hood.
