Much appreciated Stinky, I LOVE chrome.

At age 17, my first job out of school was with the Federal Office of Road Safety (crash-testing cars).  In the first month, I remember suggesting to my boss that it would be cool if someone "totally chromed" an FC (not mine).  He went on about how dangerous it would be on the road as a mobile glare menace to other drivers...  and that the ADR's would never allow it.  :(    Though, in the end I atleast got him to conceed that it would still be pretty cool  :)

Apparently this is a new paint finnish that resembles Chromium Plating, Approximately $5000.00 per litre if you were thinking of doing the FC!!

Merc must've spent a fortune on it then, coz the series I have has about 5 or 6 different models done the same.
