Why dechrome your car?
Whether it’s a company car you drive into the city every day, a lease car you need to hand back in original condition, or a weekend car you want to sharpen up, a chrome delete is one of the most cost-effective ways to change how your car looks. It’s fully reversible, so the chrome underneath stays exactly as the factory left it.

What we dechrome
You can cover one area or the whole car. Every job is quoted per vehicle, so you only pay for the chrome you want gone.
Not sure how far to go? We’ll give you honest advice on what suits your car.
Window trims
the biggest single change. Blacking out the chrome window surrounds gives a cleaner, stealthier side profile.
Grilles
black out the grille and surround to sharpen the front end. It pairs well with carbon splitters and body kits.
Interior trims
swap shiny cabin chrome for satin or matt accents for a more cohesive, high-end interior.
Badges
blacked-out or colour-matched badges and lettering add a subtle detail that ties the look together.
Wing mirrors
dechromed mirror caps and strips finish the side view, and work best alongside window trims.
Why drive over from Leeds?
Our studio is at Unit 7 Marrtree Business Park, Knaresborough HG5 8FA. From central and north Leeds it’s a straightforward run up the A61 through Harrogate, then onto the A59 – typically around 35 to 45 minutes depending on traffic, and less from Alwoodley, Roundhay or Wetherby. From east Leeds and Wetherby, the A1(M) to Junction 47 and then the A59 brings you almost to our door.
Why make the trip? Vinyl bonds best in a clean, warm, controlled environment. Every car we dechrome is fitted indoors, where trims can be properly cleaned and prepped and edges finished by hand without wind, dust or a cold Yorkshire morning working against the film. That’s what helps a dechrome last.
If you need to keep moving while your car is with us, we can arrange an Enterprise rental car – just ask when you book.
Choose your finish
- Gloss black – the closest match to factory "black pack" trim on most modern cars.
- Satin black – a softer sheen that suits satin or matt wraps and darker paint.
- Matt black – a flat, stealthy look that stands out most against gloss paint.
Vinyl lasts up to 5 years with a 3-year warranty, depending on the finish and how the car is looked after. When it's time to sell or return the car, the vinyl comes off cleanly.
Dechrome prices for Leeds drivers
Dechroming starts from £100 +VAT. The final price depends on how much chrome your car has and which areas you'd like covered – a few badges is a very different job to full window trims, grille and mirrors on a large SUV. Send us your make, model and the areas you want doing and we'll come back with a clear price. Quotes are free and valid for 30 days.

- Quote – send your car's make, model and the chrome you'd like covered. We'll confirm the price and how long we'll need the car.
- Drop off – bring the car to Knaresborough. Mon–Fri 8am–6pm, Sat 9am–1pm.
- Prep and fit – we clean and prepare each trim, remove parts where needed, apply the vinyl and finish the edges by hand.
- Collect – we go over the car with you and give you aftercare advice.
Most dechromes take from 2 hours up to 24 hours. Badges or a grille alone can often be done the same day; full window trims, grille and mirrors on a larger car may need to stay overnight.

Dechrome FAQs for Leeds drivers
How far is your studio from Leeds?
We're in Knaresborough, near Harrogate. From Leeds city centre it's typically around 35 to 45 minutes via the A61 and A59, depending on traffic, and quicker from north Leeds or Wetherby.
Do you come to Leeds to dechrome cars?
No. Every dechrome is fitted indoors at our Knaresborough studio, where we can prep the trims properly and control the conditions so the vinyl bonds well and lasts.
Can I get my car back the same day?
Often, yes. Most dechromes take from 2 hours up to 24 hours. Smaller jobs like badges or a grille are usually ready the same day; we'll confirm timings with your quote.
Can I dechrome a lease or company car?
Usually, yes. The vinyl covers the chrome rather than replacing it and can be removed cleanly before the car goes back. Check your agreement first and let us know any hand-back date.
How much does a dechrome cost for Leeds drivers?
From £100 +VAT, depending on how much chrome your car has and which areas you want covered. Quotes are free and valid for 30 days.
Can I combine a dechrome with a wrap or tints?
Yes. Many customers dechrome alongside a colour-change wrap, window tints or body kit fitting, so everything is done in one visit to the studio.
