    Originally from the Hyundai Getz thread, I figured I'd just post it here just incase the mods reckon I'm pushing my luck by posting tech questions over there.

    So am I. :-D Actually I was referring to the handle/side mirror trims which matches with the finish. Much like on the higher variants where the handles/side mirrors are painted with the same color of the car as compared to the lower variants which sport a black matte plastic. Anybody know where I could find them or which of the Philippine dealers can I get them from.


    TIA 4 d nfos-------

    If I understand your question correctly...

    Instead of buying new trims, you can have it repainted outside the dealer for a fraction of the cost. It will take no longer than a day to finish it.

    that thought occured to me. But since wala pa akong pinagkakatiwalaang paint shop (within the vicinity of my Diana) I don't want ef it up, or rather want them to ef it up. di ba like yung mga chrome garnish, correct me if I'm wrong, they just sorta clip it over the original one lang naman di ba?

    I saw a yellow Getz with a different chrome grill, chrome sidings and even chrome tail light garnish, the one that separates the different colors of the tail light (is there an actual name for this?). Looks pretty good.

    thanks for the info. I'll look them up if I start fancying chrome garnishes. For now, I'm sticking with the color-keyed trims...IF I find 'em. :-D
