you could heat gun and easily take it off. I will pay for the shipping cost to be delivered to me.

It's an easy way for the dealers to justify higher sticker prices and its their bargaining chip. Hence the reason why just about every car has wheel locks today. I was lucky enough to find a dealer relatively close that had two identical cars with no accessories on them.

I'm undecided with them on mine. I don't dislike them enough to take them off. But I don't like them enough to keep them on forever.

They all come colored. The chrome is just a cover held on with adhesive tape

Wait, what? Really?

I don't like the chrome so I should be able to remove the chrome and the colored trim should be ok? Must do that soon!
