Chrome trim can date a car’s appearance, especially on darker or more modern colours. De-chroming involves wrapping your chrome trim, badges and window surrounds in a matt or gloss black (or colour-matched) vinyl for a cleaner, more contemporary look.
It’s a fully reversible process, so if you change your mind or come to sell the car, the original chrome trim is protected underneath and can be restored. We carry a limited lifetime warranty on our de-chroming work for peace of mind.
Popular areas to de-chrome include window trims, grilles, badges and door handles. We can wrap individual sections or go all-in for a fully blacked-out look.
We use cast vinyl wraps designed for exterior automotive use, so the finish holds up to weather, washing and daily use without lifting or fading. Most de-chroming jobs are completed within a day, and we’ll always show you a sample of the finish before starting work.
De-chroming is one of the most affordable ways to modernise your car’s appearance, and because it’s reversible, there’s no risk to your original trim underneath.
No, the chrome trim is fully protected underneath the wrap and remains in its original condition.
With proper care, a de-chroming wrap typically lasts several years before a refresh is needed.
Yes, the vinyl can be removed at any point to reveal the original chrome trim underneath.
Most commonly matt or gloss black, but we can colour-match to your bodywork or use a different finish entirely.
Most jobs are completed within a day, depending on how much trim is being wrapped.
