thumbs up or down on chrome?
I had a few too any beers last night and started thinking of adding a little old school chrome accent to the '79 ...... maybe the door handles .... rear glass supports ?... bumpers inside the rubber? .... windshield trim ( just strip the paint off ) ...... those small side glass air vents maybe ? .... a few engine parts ?

Normally I'd say leave the stock colors, and your car looks great the way you have it, but a little bit of shiny chrome here and there on that nice black finish would be a nice accent, just don't overdo it. You might want to try thinking about it under the influence of some other kinds of drugs to be sure you are on the right track.

The chrome on the RX-7 badges are all we got stock.
A small bit of chrome you might add as a conversation piece is the nitro fish emblem. It's the same size as the fish everybody has, but more uh... aggressive.

No chrome.
However, on your (very nice) black car you could consider some sort of contrasting embellishment. White, yellow, red paint maybe on the door handles, pillars, or similar.
But I don't think chrome would look good.

Leave it the way it is.
Chrome is only good with light colors. Light blue, Light grey, and Light red are good with chrome. Dark colors however need dark trim.
i didn't quite hear you ..... could you repeat that ?
