Unfortunately, one unlucky player\u2019s attempt to rock chrome on their ride ended up a total disaster. Racing is one of the most popular pursuits in GTA Online, with countless players spending hundreds of hours perfecting their craft as a speedy driver \u2014 and it doesn\u2019t hurt that you get to show off your most expensive and good-looking cars in the process. While most races generally provide some basic rewards like cash, JP and RP, there are also more exclusive unlocks tied to racing that require some truly astounding skill and effort to obtain. One of these high-level rewards is the chrome unlock, which can only be obtained by winning a whopping 50 races. For one unfortunate GTA Online player, the time they spent acquiring chrome ended up a total waste, as the rare paint job turned their ride into an unbearable eyesore. In a clip shared to Reddit, the unfortunate GTA Online player shared the abomination that resulted from their attempt to slap a chrome coat of paint on what appeared to be their most prized motor vehicle. \u201cGet chrome they said, it\u2019ll be fun they said,\u201d the player remarked sarcastically while sharing a clip of their vehicle driving around with its fresh coat of paint, and simultaneously burning the retinas of anyone who dared look in its direction. Despite their best attempts to make the car look cool, its new chrome detailing turned it, quite literally, into a speeding ball of light \u2014 like looking at the sun, you shouldn\u2019t focus on the car too much in that clip, unless you want to risk permanent damage to your eyeballs. Fellow GTA players wasted no time in poking fun at the poster over this hilarious mistake. \u201cI see nothing wrong here,\u201d one fan joked, before doubling down on the jab: \u201cActually, I just can\u2019t see anymore.\u201d The roasting didn\u2019t stop there, however. \u201cOn the bright side, no one can grief you from behind without becoming blind,\u201d another comment read. Others were a bit kinder, and one fan even replied with some helpful advice, sharing their own experience with the color and a helpful alternative: \u201cChrome can be too bright, that\u2019s why I go with Brushed Aluminum.\u201d Despite the waste of time and money, this player learned a valuable lesson, which anyone else who might be thinking about decking out their own cars in shiny paint should take note of: chrome in GTA Online doesn\u2019t always work out the way you might imagine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GTA Online player\u2019s hilarious attempt to deck out their ride ends in disaster Rockstar GamesOne of the most exciting things to do in GTA Online is unlock new cars and resprays to deck them out with.
