Benefits of a Chrome Delete

Chrome Delete Details: Coverage, Finishes and Process

A chrome delete covers the chrome trim on your vehicle with vinyl film, most often in gloss, satin or matte black, for a cleaner and more modern look. At IKON Edition in Laguna Hills we do chrome deletes on cars, trucks and SUVs across Orange County. Because it is film, the original chrome stays protected underneath and the change can be reversed later.

What can be blacked out

Window surrounds and belt-line trim
Grilles and grille surrounds
Badges and emblems
Roof rails and mirror caps
Bumper and door trim accents

Some parts, such as heavily textured grilles or tightly curved badges, are harder to cover cleanly with film. During the consultation we tell you exactly which pieces on your vehicle can be wrapped for a factory-looking result.

Films and finishes

We work with films from industry leaders including 3M, Avery Dennison, KPMF, XPEL and EVOLV. Gloss black matches piano-black trim and dark paint, satin gives a softer, factory-style look, and matte adds a bold contrast. We can also match a color to your wrap or paint.

How we do it

Trim is cleaned and degreased so the film bonds properly.
Where it gives a cleaner edge, badges and trim pieces are carefully removed and reinstalled.
Film is applied, edges are tucked and the film is post-heated so it holds its shape.
Every piece is inspected for edges and alignment before delivery.

Pair it with

A chrome delete is often the finishing touch on a full color-change wrap, new window tint or paint protection film on the front end.

Common questions

Will a chrome delete damage the chrome? No. The film protects the chrome underneath and can be removed professionally when you want the original look back.

How do I care for it? Hand-wash with a mild car soap and avoid aiming a pressure washer directly at film edges; brush car washes wear edges faster.

Is it covered by a warranty? Coverage depends on the film you choose. Ask us about warranty coverage for your film and installation when you request a quote.
