playing with a 1958 beetle, painting it metalic green with suicide doors, just finishing all the welding. Need to know whether I keep the chrome along the sides or take it off

It sounds like a chrome off sorta ride to me....

As others said...depends on the look you're after....go through VW mags if your unsure...

If your bonnet as all chrome off...and your bonnet will have a gold volkswagen badge at the side of the front...chrome would clash....Too fixed up...

You could Gold Plate your chrome trims 😀

No to chrome in this case....
