Chrome

[FordNut]

Ok, so now that I've got the silver one for the wife, she says it needs some chrome. So I'm thinking since it's not black it doesn't have the sinister blacked out stealth look so why not. Maybe the CV chrome under the taillights and along the bottom of the trunk lid and a chrome GM grille. Maybe even chrome door handles from a GM/CV? But no way will it get fenderwell mouldings!

nooo!! dont do it!!

im not sure how the back of the silver marauder is, but you should make the facia in the back black...as well as the trim!

[jgc61sr2002]

I don't think that I would do that. It will make the MM look like a GM or CV. The Silver MM will not stand out like it does now. IMHO. John:(

[Sean]

if you put the chrome stuff on, it will look like a normal car...

^^^What they all said^^^
Don't take a Marauder and make it into a Grand Marquis !!!!!:confused:

[vaderv]

chrome??!! on the Marauder. YEUCK!!! Please for the love of god don't turn your car into a pimp wagon...

[RCSignals]

You are going to have to play your wife a tape while she sleeps, that repeats "no more chrome"

[RF Overlord]

TOO MUCH CHROME!!

[russ in VA]

Lets start a chant "no chrome, no chrome, no chrome". How come nobody seems to say this about the wheels? Here's a new chant for us, "powder coat, powder coat, powder coat" ... who wants to go first?

[Billatpro]

CHROME, CHROME, CHROME, CHROME!

[gonzo50]

"Powder Coat, Powder Coat, Powder Coat", YEAH BABY !:rock:

[RF Overlord]

POWDER-COAT THE WHEELS! POWDER-COAT THE WHEELS!
TOO MUCH CHROME!

:lol:

[vaderv]

I dunno, the wheels lend just the right amount of bright.

I told my wife about this thread. We had seen a Silver Marauder at the dealer today. She said "No chrome, it would just look like a silver Crown Victoria with Chrome"

CHROME, CHROME and more CHROME!!!!!!!!!!!! Tell your wife to get her own screen name and we can chat!!! I need some female company out here............

[MassMarauder]

Um, err, ah.....I like the chrome piece under the tailight:alone:

That's about as far as i would go though.....well, maybe that crome bezel around the shifter would look nice.

Bad news...

According to Fordparts.com the trim pieces under the taillights and along the bottom of the trunk lid are not available separately. The ones under the lights are part of the lights and the one along the trunk lid comes with the entire rear trunk panel. Oh well, I guess I'll leave it alone.

that's correct. You'd have to buy both tail lights and the trunk panel. You'd loose the smoked back up lights, and the taillights have different connectors. Taillights also have a yellow turn signal lens instead of the Marauders all-red

Paint it BLACK........Nuff said
