Anyone know where I might be able to buy some chrome trim, but not the kind of trim you put in wheel wells or doors...
I'm talking malleable chrome trim that isn't too thick that I can use to create circles around my gauges (like the Chrylser 300M and several other cars these days), or to create those fender bubbles like on the new Buick Park Avenue.
I've checked Pep Boys/Autozone but they only have the chrome door/wheel well trim and I dunno how I'd really make that shit work.

By the way...
i like that look a lot and thought about trying to make some but i ended up not doing anything. i dont think it would be too hard to do, just go buy some metal at home depot and cut it up...

I've wondered oh, so long...
what car is that from? only one way to find out haha
Some australian company sells them for the FTO and other cars. I'm sure you can get some that work with the galant.
Of course you can get anything to work. Its just running wires and dremeling plastic to squeeze into the hole =D

I drive with my left hand at the top I like the tach on the right side so I can see it...I rarely look at the speedo, really dont care what speed im goin =D
So the general consensus is that I should keep looking online? Nothing in stores?
I'm fiendin to do this asap!
how about some chrome tape? you can make the outline with that. or if u want some depth, make something the right shape, and then cover it with the chrome tape?
Couple new ideas... bathroom fittings and/or light fittings. I'll peep around today or tomorrow.
Also, just making the shapes out of (enter random material here) and then just having them dipped in chrome.
I'll post again and let everyone know how I make out.
