How It Works
Choose Your Service
Select the level of de-chroming that suits your vehicle and your vision. Whether it’s window trims, grilles, badges, or a full exterior chrome delete, we’ll help you choose the right option and finish to achieve the look you’re after.
Inspection & Preparation
Before any work begins, your vehicle is carefully inspected to identify all chrome components and assess their condition. Each area is then thoroughly cleaned, degreased, and prepared to ensure optimal adhesion and a flawless final result. Surrounding panels and trims are protected throughout the process.
Professional Installation
Using premium automotive vinyl, chrome elements are expertly wrapped with precision and care. Clean edges, seamless joins, and consistent coverage are prioritised to achieve a factory-style finish that complements the vehicle’s design.
Final Check & Handover
Once installation is complete, every de-chromed area is inspected under controlled lighting to ensure quality and consistency. Your vehicle is then handed back with aftercare advice to help maintain the finish and longevity of the work.

It remains the customer’s responsibility to ensure the vehicle meets MOT and UK lighting regulations and to notify their insurer of any modifications.)
