2. This is my biggest worry. Paint pealing / cracking / chipping. In the past, it was well known that chrome and painting over it didn't go well together. So what's changed? Why should I now consider this a non-problem? I wish Nissan sold plain black parts before getting chromed, then this would be a non-issue for me.

3. Will the lights need to be adjusted in anyway upon reinstalling them, or are these lights non-adjustable? I just want to know this up front so I can move them back to the original spot if I have to.

Have any people who have done this years ago had any problems with items #1 and #2?

And can someone answer item #3.

Thanks in advance for your input---- Bonzo
Me. 2 years now. And not even the slightest hint of chipping or condensation.

And no, you don't have to adjust the headlights.
