Hi guys I wanted to find out if anyone has ever tried this. i was thinking of getting a sign shop to cover the side chrome window trim? thoughts
I know that I have seen people do it just not sure if it is actually removed and painted black of if its vinyl wrap?
any help would be good better then nothing....
There's tons of threads out there on this but yes it works. I had mine done and they wrapped on top of the chrome no problems. Some people will say you should paint and some will say go cheap and easy with plastidip. It depends on what you're looking for and what cost.
it's just plastic, not actual chrome, just like the grille. I would say do the vinyl wrap because it would match the door pillars better. The black pillars next to the windows are actually vinyl tape, not painted. I had one replaced.

I concur, get it vinyl wrapped. Although, most of my friends just get theirs painted. But if it's a lease, or if you grow not to like it you can easily reverse the wrap.
Best best would be a tint shop that does more than tint, for example someone that does racing stripes or other vinyl graphic work. They would have the most balance of working with cars and working with the actual product.

That was my thought I am going to attempt it but if I see I am doing a ****ty job then its going to the sign shop. thanks for all the help.
Bringing this thread back from hibernation........anyone willing to share price ranges for wrapping the window trim in vinyl? I'm waiting on a quote now and want to get a baseline to work off of. Thanks.
The Infiniti service manual says it is stainless steel...if it is indeed stainless steel, it can be lightly sanded, primed, and painted with no problem.
