G'day all,

New truck - 95 C3500; front grille has a bunch of spots where the "chrome" has peeled off the plastic. Is there a reasonable way to touchup these areas so it doesn't look so rotten?

Thanks in advance,

Andy

Not really, that chrome plastic is garbage. Best way would be just to replace the grille. I bet they're less than $100.

Yup its all garbage.. My truck was a yr old and all chromed out with aftermarket stuff, and its turning green and peeling.. Junk!

But since it was used when I got it, I have no way of going after warranty for it.
