Description

On this white Tesla Model 3 Performance, the factory trims are already black — so instead of a typical de-chrome, we added a thin blue vinyl stripe along the front door window trim. Using leftover vinyl and simple tools, this creates a clean, premium contrast line that stands out beautifully on white paint + black trim. This is safe, reversible, and achievable for anyone. De-chroming can be fun — choose whatever color you like. Genius or Profanity?
