2011 Chrysler 300 Limited V-6 - Editors' Notebook - Automobile Magazine
It's to bottle lighting.

When the images of the new Chrysler 300 were first released, I was instantly sold on its exterior design. But now that I've seen it in person, I'm not so sure. The overall shape is very similar to that of the previous generation car -- albeit bolder, more muscular, and more elegant -- but the tiny details that look nice from a distance look busy and slightly garish when you step closer. This is especially true when viewed from the rear where there are numerous small pieces of chrome in and around the taillights and on the bumper.
