Hey guys, Ive got a question for those in the know on caprice's. Ive picked up a VR caprice but I have noticed that it does not have the chrome trim around the rear garnish and tail lights but I have noticed that some others have this. Did mine have it but now its gone? Is it on particular models? I'd like to get the trim and put it on. Cheers

I was just thinking that. Had a look through a few pics on here. Seems the VS's have the chrome surrounds but the VR's dont. Im doing it anyway lol.
