This trim is supposed to be either chrome or black (more likely than not black since chrome doesn't tend to get painted over). This indicates that this car has been re-painted, possibly by a movie studio to make it look like a taxi since this was more likely than not an ex-patrol vehicle. Yo no veo mucho el punto en que el diga si es autentico o no, pero desde que a el le interesan los taxis, pues que el haga su propia cosa ahi. -- Last edit: 2008-02-18 02:39:46

Well, it's pretty much what ford guy said, the bumper trim has been painted over, which means it's been re-painted to look like a taxi. Plus, this being a 1999 model, it would have grey colored bumpers (as all Crown Vic NYC taxis had from 1995-2000).
