Why the obsession with deleting chrome?

Glad there's a thread with chrome-friendlies! I had added more chrome to my Telsa's rear. It looked like a big red tomato from the back when I got it, and now with the trunk lip trip, the license plate bracket and the extra Model 3 emblem, I am happy with it.

The extra trim also makes the rear look visually wider, and I like the wide body look.

Btw, the trim around the windows is not chrome. So many people make that mistake on the Model 3 and many other cars. It's anodized metal. So they need to start selling anodized-delete kits instead.

I like the trunk trim!

anodizing will look much better and last longer.

Gosh I love the 2121 M3 with the black trim. When I was shopping for a BMW I wanted the sport model not because I'm a sportu person, I wanted the black exterior trim.

Hoping for a company to create this mod with actual removal of the trim and not just some sticky black electrical tape cover (I'm joking but not a fan of temporary solutions).

My user name is from my car with silvery chrome on a grey car. Love it!

And besides my hair is getting silvery.

I understand the complexities of production will stop Tesla from offering both options but I thing chrome looks the best.

Perhaps you chrome deleters will warm up to chrome highlights when you have worked for 15 years and your hair starts to get silvery. :p

Huh. I wonder if my salon guy can chrome my hair.
