Didn't the Deloreans do this before? Although it wasn't a "chrome" look. It was simply brushed stainless. But it was basicly bare like these are. It didn;t work out so well for them. Plus, if you ever get a ding...You're screwed. Done all over, like the arab's one is done, it looks GREAT. The hood only, looks "ok" on the charcoal grey on a cloudy day. But if it isn't done completely, then it's kinda ......meah.
