Chrome is cool on clothing, not cars

  • Use professionals, not a DIY kit: Thin, curved trim is tricky, so let people who wrap cars every day handle it.
  • Same material as our full wraps: The same high quality material we use for full wraps.
  • Fully reversible: Change your mind? The vinyl comes off and the chrome is just how it was.
  • Pick your pieces: Just the window trim or every bit of chrome on the car, it's up to you.

Chrome Delete Pricing

Every chrome delete is quoted per vehicle, because the price is the number of pieces and how hard each one is to wrap.

Pick the pieces

Do the whole car or just the trim that bugs you. Most drivers start with the window surrounds.

  • Window trimThe chrome strips around the side glass. The single biggest change on most cars.
  • Grille and surroundGrille bars, the surround, and the lower trim on the bumper.
  • Badges and letteringEmblems and model badges blacked out.
  • Mirror caps and door handlesThe small chrome pieces that finish the look once the trim is done.

What sets the price

  • Piece count: Window trim alone versus the whole car.
  • Shape: Flat strips are quick; deep grilles and curved handles take hours.
  • Finish: Gloss, satin, and matte black are the standard; specialty finishes are quoted.
  • Trim condition: Pitted or peeling chrome has to be fixed before the vinyl will stick.

I had an amazing experience getting my Corvette tinted, all thanks to Abbas. From start to finish, he made the whole process smooth and stress free. He took the time to explain all my options, helped me pick the perfect tint, and made sure everything was exactly how I wanted it. What really stood out was his customer service, professional, patient, and genuinely caring about the final result. You can tell he takes pride in his work, and it shows in the quality. If you're thinking about getting tints or any similar work done, I highly recommend Buff X. Ask for Abbas, you won't be disappointed!

Not going to lie, I was hesitant to do the wide body kit on my trackhawk, however Sam and his team knocked it out of the park, they delivered when they said they would and wow my track hawk turned heads on the way home (a guy in a mustang almost rear ended a car staring at it. Don’t be fooled by other companies, Buff X is the place to go.

A Chrome Delete Changes the Whole Car

A chrome delete at Buff X Customization in Dearborn Heights, Michigan turns every bright strip on your car black, and the whole car gets meaner for it. Window trim, grille, badges, mirror caps, door handles: you pick the pieces, we wrap them. Chrome pulls the eye to all the wrong places. Black it out and the paint, the wheels, and the lines of the car finally get the attention.

Go gloss, satin, or matte black. We use the same vinyl that goes on our full vinyl wraps, and with hand washing a chrome delete lasts 3 to 5 years. Changed your mind later? It is fully reversible: the vinyl peels off and the chrome underneath is just how you left it. Every job is quoted per vehicle by the pieces you choose, so you can start with the window trim and come back for the rest. Find us at 26015 W Warren St, just west of Detroit.

Chrome Delete FAQs

How much does a chrome delete cost?

A chrome delete at Buff X Customization is quoted per vehicle by the number of pieces and how hard each one is to wrap. Window trim alone is the entry point; grille, badges, mirrors, and handles add to it. Send us the car and the pieces you want done and we come back with an exact price.

Is a chrome delete permanent?

A chrome delete from Buff X is not permanent. It is vinyl over the chrome, and it comes off clean when you want the chrome back or the car is sold.

Gloss, satin, or matte black?

For a chrome delete, gloss black matches black paint and piano-black interior trim. Satin gives a clean, factory-style look. Matte looks the most aggressive.

Can you delete the chrome on just the windows?

Buff X can do a chrome delete on just the window trim. It is the most common request and the biggest single change on most cars.

How long does a chrome delete last?

A chrome delete from Buff X lasts 3 to 5 years with hand washing, the same as a full wrap. Wait a week after the install before the first wash, skip brush washes, and keep pressure-washer wands off the edges, since trim edges are the first place vinyl lifts. If a piece ever gets damaged, we re-wrap that one piece, not the whole car.

Going further? See vinyl wraps for full color changes and window tinting to finish the blacked-out look. A chrome delete is a common part of a custom build. We wrap trim for drivers from Dearborn, Livonia, Westland, Canton, Taylor, and the rest of the areas we serve, all from our window tinting, PPF, and car customization shop in Dearborn Heights.

Lose the Chrome.

Tell us the car and the pieces you want blacked out. We'll come back with an exact price and the soonest day we can get it in.
