Ive never been a fan of chrome. So I'm looking for some input on the door and window trim if it's possible to remove or if I'm just better off masking it off and painting it or wrapping it. I plan on doing the grill the same. Has anyone ever removed it ?

 

Better off painting or wrapping.

 

alright thanks. That's what I figured. I'm not a fan of the chrome. It looks good on a dark colored car but was wondering if it'd look better black

 

Here's a black ILX with the chromes wrapped in black. It should give you an idea on how it might turn out.

this is mine wrapped

 

How did you go about wrapping only parts of the car? I’ve seen guides for full car wrappings but not ones for just certain trims. Also, is plastidip recommended over wrapping?

 

You can buy black vinyl tape and apply it, that's what a lot of BMW owners do to remove the chrome. Not that difficult, just have a clean surface and take your time.
