Hey, an all-chrome car would be kinda neat.  Think how much of a hazard you 
could be!

Seriously, though, I know what you mean about the contrast.  Both of my 
air-cooled VWs have flat black tin, but I used (self)polished stainless 
hardware and judicious bits of chrome here and there.  Just wish I'd 
thought to clearcoat the fanshroud on the fasty two years ago, with all the 
time I spent buffing it.
