Lexus IS 2014+ :: Wrap Chrome Trim Around Grill
May 1, 2014
Trying to find a local shop here that will wrap my chrome trim around my grill. I had one shop tell me that they would have to section the grill near the top and that it couldn't be wrapped in one piece. I was shown an example and it was terrible, the overlay line was way too visible. I went to another shop today that said they could wrap it in one piece but I would need to take the trim piece off and bring it to them first. Any close pics of grill trim I could use as a reference.

The trim that goes around the windows, etc. I looked at the topics on detailing in the FAQ and didn't see this mentioned in them. My trim has water marks on it from water drying on it after the detailers at the lot cleaned the car before I picked it up Friday. I am hoping to get the car all cleaned up and a good sealant and wax put on it before I start heading to Colorado for skiing in about a month.
Anyways, that trim is driving me nuts because every kind of metal polisher, cleaner, etc. I find on the detailing sites says to keep it off painted surfaces which I think would be about impossible since that strip is about 1cm wide and runs right along painted body panels.

My main question is since I don't like the chrome on my windows and I am getting visors what are my option. Is it common to just put the clip ins and leave the chrome or do what i have been reading which is to black out your chrome? If i put the 3m typed style visors do i go right on top of the chrome or not and if not how do i go about blacking that out? Which brand 3m stick on visors recommended for the darkest color and slickest look?

How can I take the below door chrome trim off? I started wrapping one in 5d carbon fiber and I am about to take it off and start again. It would be so much easier if i could snap these off.

Looking at a CPO 2008 Passat Komfort and noticed that all of the chrome trim is fading/oxidizing/cloudy. Is this common on the vehicle? No luck with the search...

Picked up my new 2013 Sonata GL 3-weeks ago. Noticed a little surface rust on the front struts when I picked it up and when I was washing it for the first time last week I saw a rust spot where the chrome trim mounts on the hood. I removed the trim and took these photos...

So the chrome trim is coming off in multiple spots on my car. Both sides and the back are messed up. The drivers door trim is gone along with the passenger door trim and a little part in the back .... What to do or how to replace it.

I was searching for instruction how to replace the chrome trim that appears to be a seperate piece of trim on the rear of the Phaeton. Mine has some issues on the passenger side and would like to remove it to have it either repaired or replaced.

I've got an '07 2.0T MT6 Sport with about 18,000 miles. The round chrome trim ring on the fan speed control knob of the Climatronic panel came loose yesterday. This is the piece between the rotating knob and the two buttons in the center. It's now sticking out a little from the knob and is rattling around.
Is there a way to pop this back on easily? It doesn't look like it's going to fall off completely, but I can't find a way to put it back either. Obviously it should be covered under warranty, but I'd like to avoid a trip to the dealer if there's an easy DIY fix.

I have had no luck finding an F-150 without the Chrome package. The side bars that come with that are next to useless. Assuming I order a truck, what aftermarket sidebars are good for stepping out on? My dad cant use the factory ones. BTW, I curse the engineer that took the grab handle from the driver side on new F-150s.
To clarify, I'm looking for an ecoboost, 157in wheelbase S-Crew, 3.55 rear and most amenities sans leather. I don't want the chrome deal because of the bars and that I can't be showing up on a farm looking like a rap star with self control issues... Some chrome is ok, but for crying out loud, who thought this package was a good idea?

Any way to replace or re finish the chrome clad wheels?
I have a 2012 xlt with the chrome package. The chrome on the rims started to bubble.
So I am trying to come up with something to make the truck look good again.

I am having trouble finding the correct part number for the Ford emblem that goes on the front grill on an 09 F150 lariat crew cab. My father in law asked me to order one since his is faded badly. What is the correct part number?

My 2012 F150 has these rubber sheets between the grill and radiator. In the attached photo you can see them between the headlight and radiator.
One of 4 sheets inside the engine compartment. See the sheets just inside the headlights.
They appear to be there to direct air from the grill through the radiator. These sheets have already decayed/torn and need to be replaced.

Got back from a three hundred mile trip and after washing the car I noticed that the chrome wrap on my 450h 2013 front grill is bubbling up? The last month temperatures have been around 10 degrees but no snow. Will take to dealer next time in Spokane. But would like to know how to prevent this in the future.
