Your car looks very nice. To me, there should never be chrome of any sort on a modern sports car. It's certainly possible that if I cover up the chrysler logo on the badging things might look a little better. I must admit that I was surprised by exactly how intense the chrysler logo is now that it isn't offset by the chrome. I may have to consider some sort of stickers over the logo, like yours (do you know how I could get my hands on these?). But what I think really sets off the front of your car are the tinted headlights. I think your car would look even more sinister if you didn't have the chrome wings--IMO, of course. If chrysler was smart, they would have developed a special, smaller, variation of the badging just for the crossfire. IMO, the badging is more akin to what the front of a porsche--they just have a crest and it also has a good amount of gold in it.

What is the headlight output like on your car? The tint looks great, but I just couldn't get myself to do what I suspect would reduce the functional output of the lights. I've always been curious to know how people drive at night with tinted headlights.
