I'm thinking of putting some chrome on the box. I've seen the pillars and rear bumper app. But, I'm wondering if anyone has done a little more.

BSP xB here on....
18" Chrome Motegi's
Chrome license plate frames
Chrome exhaust tip
Chrome bB emblems
Cleared headlights w/ Chrome bulbs

It looks pretty chromed out to me!

Black on chrome is my favorite :love:

Chrome is good just don't over do it

Everyone's got their own thing I guess. I have already said that it's not really my taste but I'm not going to knock the guy for doing what he likes. I don't want Mark to think I posted that link trying to make fun or talk bad of him or his xB. I only posted it for the thread starter to see a chromed out box.

You can get a chrome grill treatment, door handles, side skirt treatment, and mirror set.

It didn't look bad except the wheelwell trim. Those things cause more damage than they are worth. Always wondered how 20's would look?

It is what it is. JDM chrome fender trim $260 + shipping. Too rich for your blood?? I like my LexB. Lol :blah: :blah: :blah:

The 20s make it look ghetto, SSR vienna dish 17s would be hot on that car.

Sorry Mark, didn't mean to dis yer ride. I just had something else in mind. Kinda the old 60s Lincoln continental look. Or, and i know I'll take some crap for this, but the mini cooper sorta thing.

speaking from experience... polishing chrome SUCKS ___! My dad drove a semi that was mega chromed out. When I was little I was the one that "got to" polish it.

I'm looking to add some chrome to my BOP box.

I like it subtle though. that one posted above is just TOO MUCH.

I'm looking at Chrome or Polished rims, B-Cool grill just
for the part between the headlights, cleared out tail lights...
and I think that's it. Just once piece of chrome on each side
of the box, and I'm happy.

Do people even KNOW what JDM means?

I see people throwing the term around in this thread like mad.

JDM means Japanese Domestic Market, OK? That means parts for your car that are made for the car in Japan.

Making your xA "JDM" would be putting some Ist badges on in the correct place, for example.

If you were really hardcore, a RHD drive xA would be JDM as f*ck.

Somehow people are sticking the JDM label on every hideous add-on or stupid styling trend you can think of...
