Every BRZ has it paint matched. The chrome piece is just something you tape on over the painted part. Some like it, some don't

Chrome (or brushed aluminum) vinyl wrapping this would take 5 minutes a side and cost next to nothing. It would look just as "good" and be durable.

Anyone have a brief video or explanation to take off the Chrome Trim Fender, I have a SWP BRZ and I want to get rid of the chrome part.

Probably get a flat head screw driver with a microfiber between the fender.. wedge in, grip as far down as possible, and pull away, don't lever. Start at the tips. The chrome is noticeably larger than the painted piece under it.. so don't worry too hard about how far in you can put your wedge. |
