Aircraft paint remover + 3 coats of flat black spray paint have kept mine looking good for 3 years now. No chips, no flakes.

The polished ones look cool, though--but on a Camaro?

I know that dip**** , I should've been more clear in my previous post. Obviously you can't polish rubber!

Too bad our wiper arms are plastic (the big ones on 93-97s)...If they were metal, we could polish them and THAT would be cool!

On my camaro I took off that massive piece of plastic on each blade, it looks much better now. As far as polishing or silver I'm not sure because you have to think that it isn't going to be next to the body, it will be next to the massive nasty black cowl cover. Speaking of that has anyone every fabricated something new or less obtrusive than the stock piece? I've always thought that would really clean up the look of the car.

I'd only get them if I knew the APC logo would come off. I don't know what it is but every ricer out here seems to have an APC logo across their windshield now. I don't know what it is but everytime I see that logo now on anything, it makes me think, "RICE!"
