Or unless you own a '78, in which case the door lock surrounds are chrome. As is the lock cylinder on the '78 rear console compartment (they became blacked-out in '79). And the antenna mast. And if you have an early '78, the ball ends on the hood and hatch shocks.

But other than that, yes, no chrome!

You remove the 911 headlight buckets and the h-4 or H-5 assembly replaces all of that. However H-5 uses a different plug easy to splice in...and they look so much better !!! like the car was designed for it which it was.
