Default Interior chrome delete

Hello, I was wondering if there is any way possible to black out or change (new parts) the chrome pieces in my interior like the ac vent trim, ***** and door handle trim etc. If anyone knows a way please let me know thanks.

Anything is possible. Are you going to do it yourself or have it done? To have all this done probably will cost you $5k. I know of no aftermarket parts that are not chromed.

The small parts on the upper door trim, door handle, vent surrounds, etc are black on the XL/STX trucks. You could use some of those parts to get rid of the chrome.

Swap your dashboard for an XL dashboard.

You can definitely change or black out the chrome pieces in your interior, like the AC vent trim, *****, and door handle trim. Consider looking for aftermarket parts or even swapping parts from different trim levels like the XL/STX trucks that have black versions of these components.

If you want to go really cheap, a flat black paint pen or sharpie.

Not sure about the 2015+ platform. But for my 2014, I researched and bought STX trim interior parts to black out all the interior chrome.

I have never figured out why auto manufacturers want to put all that chrome on the interior of their vehicles. For people with eye problems, like myself, it is quite irritating.

You could try to cover the chrome with vinyl wrap if you are detail oriented. Just cut, peel, stick and tuck. VVivid offers a lot of options.
