Well, big thanks to Anthony over at IND for shooting my tips this afternoon as a courtesy and battle against ridding my 5 of the last visible piece of chrome. They were first taken off, sanded, then sprayed, dried for a few minutes, sprayed again, and then baked for 5 minutes at 400 or so. After that, they were put on, touched up on the inside and poof! Done. Took about 15 minutes using a can of high-temp matte black paint. =)
Thx again IND @ A&L Auto Body! http://ind-distribution.com/
P.S. - Here was this sick M3 that was on the lift getting a rear diffuser and front lip that was molded to the bumper. Turned out really nice.

Not a fan :thumbsdown:
Hey, you'd be a fan if your stock tips on your lowly 530i looked like tiny little chrome testicles of zero-horsepower. Painting them black made them less of an eyesore thats for sure!
