Just wondering if there was such a thing? Looking for pics of a black T-type, or regal limited w/ the chrome bumpers, and moldings. I'm possibly thinking of a color change, pretty extreme, white to Black, we'll see... Post away!
 
I saw one for sale about a year ago i think it was on autotrader.com

It was very sharp and stock looking.
 
From the factory my 85 is a black t-type with black moldings and chrome bumpers. Though the previous owner painted the bumpers black
 
so, was it even an option to have black w/ chrome headlight bezels, and rocker moldings, and wheel opeing moldings?? or just black w/ chrome bumpers?
 
I've got a Black Ttype with Chrome bumpers ONLY- Grey int. Everything else is blacked out. When the weather gets better I'll shoot a few pics and post up.
 
There's one in the Cars for sale section right now and it's gorgeous.
 
Here's a shot of my 86. The chrome breaks it up a little. Chrome bumpers only.

The black chrome is also a favorite for me as well, Fatride has a beautiful one also.
 
mine is black with Chrome bumps - I HATE the BLACK! I want my car to be white but don't have the cash to spray it.
 
none are mine but I love black with chrome trim.

I also really like cornering lamps.

perfect pics, Car second from Bottom is what I was looking for, TTII wheels, w/ black vinyl top, just like my car, except mine is white, great comparrison..
 
mine is the Limited with the hood open in the pics... i love my car.. but my advice (and im sure many will agree with me) Leave it White.... you would be making a mistake changing that color.. white TRs are great.... :p :biggrin:
 
Great lookin', Royal6.

Mine is a WE4 so I am torn as to whether or not to replace the trim with chrome. I have a grey leather limited set of seats so they are going in. Chrome Wheel lips, window surrounds grille and bumpers could be in its future.

As far as the WO2 black out goes, according to Buick literature it was available with black until the WE4 was introduced. It is not clear if the black with standard chrome was discontinued then or not. Either way they both would have had chrome bumpers from the factory. Black bumpers were only available on WE4 and WE2(Grand National).

As far as stainless rocker trim and cornering lamps, these were not available with the WO2 blacked out trim. Though the chrome non remote mirrors were for some reason. Most came with body color sport mirrors.
