One of our Supporting Vendors - Avon Custom Wheels will even do them-up painted to match your vehicle's exterior paint, which IMO, looks much better than the chrome version.

Aloha Bro! Still waiting for a reply for your parts.

Man, that rear "panel" thing makes it look like the Chrysler body designer took a break before finishing - and then forgot to come back!

Yeah no biggie on the parts reply, I have a substitute in the meantime...

Howdy Mr.DJ, I was just looking at the snapshot and thinking - if those chrome surrounds were painted the same color as the car, then...well, wouldn't that just make them disappear?

I had thought that initially as well; however, at the time, I had wanted something to help alleviate the overabundance of red plastic which the non-'C' taillight assemblies exude...just too much red for me. I also felt that they might 'disappear' if done in 'PXR' on tinted taillights, but might look much better if done (painted to match) in a lighter exterior paint scheme on models other than PXR or DLR. Since then, I have upgraded to OEM '300C'/'SRT-8' taillamps, as the three white (reverse/back-up light) strips help break-up the red...looking much better than those assemblies which come OEM on the Base, Touring, and Limited models.

It would and it wouldn't. Depends on which color car you have. With the darker colors it will be less noticeable, but still make people do a double take, by seeing the horizontals bars body color.

With a red color and the red tails, that is the one that will basically dissapear,IMHO.

The cool vanilla, shiny silver, mag. pearl, silver steel, etc. they would look pretty good, if you stay with OEM red lens tails.

PM me your substitute Mr. Bulk, now you got me curious,lol.
