    I saw a car that had all the strips and badges painted black to match the car... looked pretty good actually. I was very surprised. It gave it a very tasteful subdued look.

    If this is the piece you're talking about they're not "real" chrome -- it's just a plastic trim piece held onto the fascia by tabs with clips. I'm sure you can get replacement pieces but they may need to be painted which you can DIY or have your favorite paint shop do it for you.

    I presume you're talking 300 here --- You might be able to reach the clips from the underneath, not sure how much handroom is in there with the cover on the car.

    Be very careful if you live in a colder climate getting them painted.Mine are paint over chrome and I am currently looking for the non chrome style since mine are peeling.
