Question Removing Chrome Door Handle Strips

So it appears that you get chrome door handle strips when you order the Premium package. Does anyone know if the chrome strips can be removed? I am going for a blackout theme and don't want the chrome but do want the other features of the premium package

Someone here had them refinished in black. Look for an all black SoCal F10 here.

Yeah, I've seen this car in person. Looks very nice. I think the owner said the tint guys just carefully put the film over the top of the chrome pieces. They didn't actually remove the chrome parts. As long as you get the top lined up right, I suppose you could be off a little on the bottom and no one would know unless they get under the car and look up.

Any idea what his handle is on here so I can track down the car?
