This Audi e-tron GT is a perfect example of what a chrome delete does for a modern car. Every piece of chrome trim — window surrounds, grille accents, badges — has been wrapped in satin black vinyl. The result is a murdered-out, monochromatic look that makes the car feel ten times more aggressive than stock.

Most Popular Chrome Delete Vehicles

Cadillac Escalade are our #1 chrome delete vehicle — the contrast between gloss black trim and the body color is night and day. Mercedes S class/Maybach is a close second. Tesla Model 3/Y owners with the older chrome trim come in regularly too. Even Toyota and Honda owners are doing chrome deletes now — it's an affordable way to make any car look premium.

How Long Does It Last?

5-7 years with quality vinyl like 3M and Avery Dennison . And here's the best part — the chrome underneath stays perfect. When you want to refresh it or change it up, peel and redo. It's a fully reversible mod.
