Spanish term

apliques cromados de las portezuelas

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks
This is actually from a story by an Argentine writer:

No podía quejarse de la vida. Su padre había sido un cobrador de la luz, un inmigrante que se había muerto de hambre sin haber llegado a nada. El señor Lanari había trabajado como un animal y ahora tenía esa casa del tercer piso cerca del Congreso, en propiedad horizontal y hacía pocos meses había comprado el pequeño Renault que ahora estaba abajo, en el garaje y había gastado una fortuna en los hermosos apliques cromados de las portezuelas.

is it just chrome doors? Don't need the technical term, just something that gives the idea of extravagance...

Thanks!

chrome accents on the doors

No, they're not chrome doors, just touches of brightness here and there

.(gorgeous) door chrome trim. Or door trim on the doors.

Small inexpensive flash added to door edges, mirrors or handles.
Think of the trim of older 50s cars.
You can tell it's trim instead of actual accessories due to the word "apliques"
