BLACKOUT / CHROME DELETE IN BROOMFIELD
Benefits of Blackout / Chrome Deletes
Broomfield's vehicle mix reflects its position as the tech corridor between Denver and Boulder — a high concentration of Teslas in Anthem and Broadlands, BMW/Mercedes-Benz/Audi/Lexus daily drivers around Interlocken and McKay Lake, and the newer family SUVs and crossovers running US-36 between Broomfield and the surrounding metro. Almost every one of those vehicles came from the factory with chrome trim that owners often want gone — Tesla owners famously delete chrome window surrounds and badges within weeks of buying, BMW owners want kidney grille slats blacked out, Mercedes drivers want window trim and B-pillars cleaned up. A professional chrome delete handles all of it in a single day.
Summit Customs is a 3M Pro Shop based in Commerce City, about 30-40 minutes east of Broomfield via US-36, the Northwest Parkway, and I-25. We offer professional blackout and chrome delete packages in Broomfield using 3M cast vinyl in matte black, satin black, gloss black, and custom finishes — installed by 3M-certified installers with the precision required for clean trim work on luxury and EV vehicles. Whether you're doing a complete Tesla chrome delete, a BMW kidney grille and window blackout, an Audi Singleframe trim delete, a full Mercedes-Benz murder-out package, or chrome delete on a family SUV, we deliver factory-quality execution that complements the premium aesthetic of newer luxury vehicles. Best of all, professional chrome delete is fully reversible — the vinyl wraps over your factory chrome without cutting, drilling, or permanent alteration, so the original trim is preserved underneath.
Upgrade your vehicle’s look with a professional chrome delete, one of the most popular automotive styling upgrades for a sleek, modern appearance.

Common Questions About Blackouts / Chrome Deletes
What is a chrome delete and what does it include?
A chrome delete is the process of covering or replacing your vehicle's shiny chrome trim with a matte, satin, or gloss vinyl wrap — typically in black, but available in any color. This can include door handles, mirror caps, window trim, grille surrounds, badges, bumper accents, and any other chrome elements on your vehicle.
How long does a blackout or chrome delete take, and how does scheduling work for Broomfield customers?
Most chrome deletes are completed in one day, depending on the size of the vehicle and the number of chrome pieces being wrapped. Full blackout packages that include window tint, trim wrap, and badge delete may take one to two days. For Broomfield customers, our Commerce City shop is about 30-40 minutes east via US-36, the Northwest Parkway, and I-25. Most Tesla chrome delete and single-brand luxury blackout packages can be completed with morning drop-off and end-of-day pickup. For comprehensive blackout packages spanning multiple days, we provide a specific timeline at consultation so you can plan transportation or arrange a loaner for daily use. We work by appointment to ensure your vehicle gets the full installation attention it needs.
Is a chrome delete permanent? Will it damage my vehicle?
No — chrome deletes done with high-quality vinyl wrap are completely reversible. The wrap is applied over your existing trim without any cutting or permanent alteration, so your factory chrome is preserved underneath. When removed properly, it won't leave residue or damage your paint or trim.
What's the difference between a blackout package and a chrome delete?
A chrome delete specifically targets the chrome/silver trim pieces on your vehicle. A full blackout package is more comprehensive — it typically includes the chrome delete plus blacking out other elements like the grille, headlight housings, tail lights (smoked), emblems, and sometimes window tint for a fully murdered-out look.
Do you offer Tesla chrome delete and luxury sedan blackout packages for Broomfield owners?
Yes — Broomfield's mix of tech professionals and affluent families means we see a steady flow of Tesla chrome delete projects and luxury sedan blackout work from Anthem, Broadlands, Interlocken, and McKay Lake. Tesla chrome delete is one of the most popular first mods on Model 3, Model Y, Model S, and Model X — it removes the factory chrome window surrounds, mirror caps, frunk and door badges, and trunk lid trim. A complete Tesla chrome delete typically runs $400-$700 depending on model and coverage. Luxury sedan chrome delete is similar in scope but brand-specific: BMW models often include window surrounds, kidney grille slats, and side trim; Mercedes-Benz E-Class, S-Class, GLE/GLS, and AMG variants typically include window trim, B-pillars, and front grille slats; Audi A-series and Q-series include Singleframe grille trim, window surrounds, and door handle accents; Lexus IS/ES/RX include grille spindle outline and window trim. Brand-specific packages typically run $400-$800. We can also do partial deletes (just window surrounds, for instance) and combine chrome delete with badge debadge or grille mesh wrap for a complete styling refresh.
