When I do my bumper I'm going to try the black chrome on the headlight bezels. Pretty much just tinting the chrome. If it doesn't come out right I'll just have them painted.

Making good progress, I need to get mine to the body shop soon, if I go another winter with out a good touch up the little spots will become major fast.

going to spend the wknd. with a bucket of soapy water and some #400 wet or dry. After I get the door window moldings & handles off. It was suggested to get a new rear bumper cover also as to much cracking paint would lead to issues.

Them Limited fender flares, though - what a PITA! Rivets, screws and push-in clips to mount them - plus the welting (Mitsu calls them protective pads); metal mounting brackets are riveted onto the plastic flares; nuts for the bumper flare portion that are almost impossible to get to... Not to mention that Mitsubishi decided to have the fender liners installed underneath the flare attachments on the lip, so you can't remove the liners without drilling off the flare. God, what a horrible design. Ask me how I know.
I have more rivets if you need them - or I can hook you up with a box of them via Amazon.

handles, mirrors most trim off need to chk fit of frt bumper cover and remove rear cover. Disassembling handles and mirrors to do in red. Roof rack will be last, I am leaning toward drilling holes in headliner to access mtg crp.
