It's just a show thing ... I still want to know where to get this kind of paint though..

[gobs3z]

i think they actually dipped the panels in chrome, it's not paint. I went to a bike show last year where they had a fully chrome hayabusa and they dipped all the panels in chrome which added an extra 200lbs. It was cool, but i assume the ride is extremely hot.

gobs3z, I forgot the name of the company but it got a special paint and a speacial way for you to spray paint the car in chrome.. you get the same effect. it also conducts electricity.. I will try to find out what's the company name and post it here...


dani_d_mas, yeah I remember the Mercs chrome pix.. and I don't think it was a calendar.. Just some pix..

Ok... I though it was a calendar. Sometimes, this kind of official pics are done for calendars...

Now I wish they were calenders.. :lol:

I'm pretty sure the merc pics actually were from a calendar. I'm gonna try and look for it online.

They were featured in Mercedes owners magazine in the UK :wink:

Obviously, they could have made it into a calendar, just google it :)

Even if they made it.. It will still be illegal to use that paint on any car on the public roads.. Have you ever tried looking at a car which got a reflextive tint at mid-day :D It's not really nice.. :D

I would like to know how you can keep a car with such paint clean.. :roll:

[testdrivem3]

Urghh this is crappy :x Who could do this to the most beautiful car in the world :?: The rear lights even look cheap. The actual Mercedes calendar also shows chrome cars and they really look awesome!
