Chrome delete picture thread

Let's see your pics after doing a chrome delete...

Got ours done last week after 8 months of ownership. Most the emblems were removed first week we had it. The grill is a factory gmc part that I installed a while back. Roof rack is painted and the rest is wrapped. Rear gmc logo I had sprayed body color then wrapped the inserts. And since they were doing some paint I had them color match the strip of trim on the fixed running boards for a little contrast. The door handles are ok for now but I don't really like the look of them so I plan to have them sprayed body color in the future. Fender gmc logo and front sidemarker lights were wrapped in lightest tint they had. Wheels are polished aluminum and no plans to change them for now as I like the contrast they have as opposed to going black.

And if you're comfortable maybe post the cost. Seems lot of folks are interested in going the chrome delete route and ask about pricing. I paid $1200 out the door for the vinyl and paint work and they had the vehicle for 3 days. OEM gmc grill was around $700 on sale and I installed it myself (I think it's around $250 to have the dealer install it).

With the light tint these don't look nearly as dark (did not want them dark) in person as they do in those above pics.

Looks great! In the process of deleting all the chrome on our 2017 right now.

Nice, makes the front end look so much better! Really like that color too.

NIevo - Can I ask what method you went with, and what the cost was or that you were quoted? I have a 2018 LS, so only chrome grill surround (not all the grill inserts) and headlight surround, 1st & second row window trim, and asked for the front and black bowties to be blacked as well, with vinyl wrap. That, plus removing the SUBURBAN logos on both front doors and the rear. I've gotten two quotes, $560-660 estimate and $650.

That just seems a little high to me, given it doesn't have the full chrome grill, roof side rails, mirror backs, running boards, etc. like on some other trims. The $560-660 estimate was $500-600 plus $20 per emblem de-badging, for what that's worth.

Blacked out 22 denali. Thinking about removing roof rails and debadging as I have my last 2 yukons and the tahoe before that.

The blue and white look pretty sweet
