The cars look great. Not sure if we can replicate this fit and finish here in India. Check with Arush Autophysche or the big man DC himself

these are hand painted with brushes. tedious job

These cars were chromed and shot for the Mercedes 2004 Calendar.
Read about it here (Mercedes Benz Calendar 2004).

Yes yes... the merc might look awesome, but just think about the heat it would be radiating during the summer... now THAT would be a killer!

I think the process of chrome painting is called chromulization or something.

Godspeed,

look up the thread on the so called silver audi tht a sultan owned. it has deetails on how this effect can be achieved. ppl around u will go blind in the day though with all the light the paint will reflect.

Well guys i guess these crome paint job is banned in the us, coz it reflects the sunlight and other drivers can have problem with such paint job.. but again i am not too sure of this.. as it was told to me..

Here are some more pics of our dream cars...with the similar finish:

Nice one bro!
