De-chromed XC60
As promised, I uploaded some photos of my de-chromed XC60. I know de-chroming isn't for everybody, but it adds character in my very own opinions. Hopefully this can help users out there to decide whether to get it done.
I have also added a black roof which borrowed the design from the XC40 rear quarter. Enjoy the photos. De chromed without black roof https://flic.kr/s/aHskwmC16k De chromed with black roof https://www.flickr.com/gp/128877478@N05/012rY7 Im also thinking to get ceramic coating done, will report back once I had it applied. |

Congratulations!! Looks stunning, especially with the XC40-style black roof, which matched perfectly with the rest of the white. What happened to the rear engine-type and trim level emblems; I know you can order the car without them being stuck at the tear.
Any feedback on the ceremic coating type and applying company will be greatly appreciated. Enjoy the car!!

And as you said, the only opinion that matters is yours.

I like the the de-chrome and the black roof but prefer the wheels exactly as they are - the dark areas match the black and the machined faces match the roof rails.
Top job. |
