I like yours. Going to do the wheels, too? If so, make sure you get ceramic coating on it.
How does that make any sense? If you have the onyx chrome originally, how can the dealer now say you get shiny/polished chrome as a replacement? Sounds more like your dealer doesn't want to deal with the replacement onyx again spotting like your original pieces.The dealer warrantied my oxidizing chrome and replaced it with shinny chrome. Said that's what the vin # called for. How do I decode that. Not that I don't trust the dealer... but i don't...
Wow. Go online and download an illustrated parts breakdown manual and find the specific part. Google the part number if it doesn’t tell you the specific name. If you had pics of the vehicle to prove what it came with or the window sticker stating it had black chrome that should help. Honestly, I didn’t even know the GV70’s even came with shiny chrome. Maybe on the base model but I don’t know which one you have.The dealer warrantied my oxidizing chrome and replaced it with shinny chrome. Said that's what the vin # called for. How do I decode that.

Judging from what everyone is saying it will spot. All I used to do was wipe it down with a microfiber towel. Make sure it is a little moist. I didn’t like the fact I had to do it all the time so I got the window trim and handles vinyl wrapped (chrome delete). Never had a problem since. Lasts 3-4 years. Too bad the grill can’t be done.How does that make any sense? If you have the onyx chrome originally, how can the dealer now say you get shiny/polished chrome as a replacement?

I just got a Sport Prestige and will cross my fingers my onyx chrome doesn't spot and oxidize. I'll be sure to coat it with some wax and hope that helps.
Gotcha@wayne14133 I had a base GV70 loaner for awhile dealing with my GV70 SP issue (long story), and the base has shiny chrome.
