Does anyone here have ideas and ways to cover up the Interior Chrome. Gear Stick. A/C vents. Etc.

The sun hits them and its a pain in the eye.

Yes my car is Tinted (Ceraminc 25%, Sunroof 5%) cept for the Windshield. Not allowed in Pa.

Should try Llumar Air Blue 80 for the windshield.  Cannot even tell it is tinted really, but very effective.

A popular way to go is to wrap the chrome in carbon fiber or the like.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

I plan on Plasti-dipping the chrome bits.




I personally find painting easier than vinyl wrapping

Would not pass inspection here.

I was dubious of the wrap stick on stuff because the trim is very skinny.

Anyone do this yet? Or Plastidip it ?
