    Chrome window trim to black

    I was wondering whether it was hard to make my chrome window tint black? Is it just a matter of sanding the chrome off and then spraying black spray paint on it. Or are there other steps in doing it?

    Also ive got the early model euro chrome bumpers. Is there any way I can make that black aswell?

    thanks..

          I'm about to plastidip my euro bumpers, I just got new trim for the front. it would be a good idea to rough them up a bit so the paint sticks better.

            The bumpers? No need, it sticks to chrome as well as anything else. Don' ruin the finish just to paint them with Plasti-Dip. If you ever sell them, the buyer can just peel it off.

              My front was fucked and I got my rear black already. I sprayed my front flat black but it has some serious fade issues, so I'm going to plastidip them both so it will look better.
