Default When detailing, what do you do to the ...

Antenna?
OEM chrome tailpipe tips?
Headlight and taillight covers?

I'm using Zaino products on the paint and wheels, 303 on the top, and Zaino's tire stuff on the tires. But as I was doing my first thorough wash and polish this weekend, I realized I didn't know what to do with the above areas.

Thanks.

i zaino all the areas you mentioned... (except the antenna)

you can even do your glass-

use the same product that you use on your tires on the antenna (or vinylex or 303 are other choices)

Antenna - 303
OEM chrome tips - Wet rag or Mother's metal polish when it's really dirty
Headlights/Tailight covers - Klasse or Plexus

Antenna - 303.
Tailpipe tips - I just wipe them down hard. Will a protectant handle the heat of the tailpipes?
Headlight/taillight covers - I vacillate. Sometimes I treat them like any other body panel, and use a wax. (NXT for me.) Other times, I treat them like a window and put rainx on them.
