Custom Chrome Delete & Blackout Services in McKinney, TX

A chrome delete is a vehicle customization service where vinyl wrap or sometimes paint is applied over the chrome trim and accents to conceal them. This is typically done to achieve a more modern, aggressive, or monochromatic look, commonly using matte or gloss black vinyl.

A skilled technician carefully cleans the chrome surfaces to ensure proper vinyl adhesion. The vinyl film is then meticulously applied and trimmed to precisely fit the contours of the vehicle's trim, such as window surrounds, grilles, and door handles, resulting in a seamless, factory-like finish.

The lifespan of a chrome delete depends on the quality of the vinyl and the installation. With high-quality materials and professional installation, a chrome delete can last 5 to 7 years or more. Proper care and maintenance, such as regular washing, also extend its life.

The price depends on the vehicle's make, model, and the amount of chrome trim to be covered. It is generally more affordable than having the parts painted. Full chrome deletion, which is more complex and time-consuming, will be more expensive than just wrapping the window trim

While matte black and gloss black are the most popular options, various colors and finishes are available to match or contrast with your vehicle. Options include satin black, custom colors, or even textured vinyls like carbon fiber.

Care for the wrapped trim as you would the rest of your vehicle's vinyl wrap. Hand wash it regularly with a mild, pH-neutral soap and a soft microfiber cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or automated car washes with brushes that can scratch or damage the wrap.
