Should I leave the window trim chrome or paint black as well. I'm literally torn and have heard equal arguments for both... There is chrome on the side fender emblem, the front, and the rear strip so I'm not sure what to do...
I don't want to "black" it out too much as I hate the way cars look when all completely black... Looks like a black blob.. IMO
Thoughts?

I really like your car the way you have it set up right now. The only thing I would do is add red center caps from Mina. Thats just me. I like black, red and chrome......

hope you don't mind the comments - just interesting opinions - I'm a designer, and I kinda get to play with lots of shapes and colours. I like the front wheels / fender archs black as shown - looks pretty aggressive, but the back wheel / fender arch just looks a bit heavy and unbroken. Maybe brighter calipers to break up that expanse of black on the hind-quarters?

I've got a Botanical Green XFR with silver R calipers. Im glad about this, it keeps the car toned down just enough...

Painting everything black takes away the shape and styling of a car. That's a good thing when you have an ugly car, but the XF is not ugly. Plus you are putting yourself in the category of how the Kia Optima boys like to hop up their cars.
