(06-11-2012, 06:40 PM)Purplecomputer Okay,

So Im pretty much making my car worse by trying to make it better.

I was trying to polish the chrome arches found on the rear of the doors and on the passenger side I guess I polished too hard ( I was using a buff pad that goes on a power drill)

and now there's a line going down it which looks like I peeled away the chrome plating. Now before I started the chrome was very "cloudy" and it is noticeably shinier but not where I want it to be.

how can I fix this?

EDIT: If the piece is removable, does someone want to sell me another one?

ive got the same problem, idk what ill do, im thinking i might repaint all of it silver cause my w123 is blue and silver and blue looks awsome

love my w123 Heart

really want a w114 Sad
