I think the grill is an improvement over the cheap looking plastic nose piece. Some people black out the chrome pieces but I come from the old school and like chrome. My 1962 Thunderbird has lots of chrome and everyone likes it.

Except that Tesla chrome is actually plastic.

I wish you had not told me that but you are right as I tested with a magnet. And I was so proud of Tesla for that one piece "chrome" around the windows.

I'm not sure if there are any modern cars being made with much "real chrome" these days. Most of the trim is plastic if for nothing else but weight and cost of production. The name of this finish escapes me right now for some reason. Anyway, I believe plastic with a thin kind of metal film and then clear coated. If you breach the clear coat, you're done, it's a mess. That's why the trim should be treated like clear coat for cleaning practices.

edit: I think it's called vacuum metalized chrome plastics

To expound on this a little, even if I liked the overall design of this, which I personally don't, there is no way I'd want more "stuff" on the highest impact zone of the car that is highly subject to damage. I originally grumbled at the little bit of chrome plastic trim that was on the front of the Prius Plug-in because I knew it would look awful immediately. I see this as catching a lot of debris and bugs and looking awful. I don't know how rigid it is so is it very subject to denting?

I've actually been impressed with how well much of the trim on the Tesla has held up.

Does anyone know where you can still get the chrome grille? I’ve been looking everywhere and even called t sport line and can’t find one.
