The photo above is a rendering.

To answer your question though, you can't paint the chrome trim because the paint will peel. Use a vinyl to cover up the trim. I will be using the Shadowline Trim Tape in Gloss Black.

Hope that helped.

I will be doing the install and expect some pictures by next weekend.
