Chrome Delete On a 2015 535I

Hi, I have a 2015 535i xDrive. I wanted to get the M-Sport package when i purchased my car. But they had a great deal with this "leftover". Its Alpine White with Mocha Int. The back bumper has this strip of chrome that kinda boomerangs around the deflectors and i just have NO IDEA what to do to cover it up. I'm going to a guy i know here in South NJ and he is going to plastidip my roof, window trim, grills and mirror caps and also im going to do 20% tint all around and a 5% strip on the windshield. Any inexpensive ways to cover up the chrome on the door handles and bumper?

Go to a body shop and have them paint them.
Doesn't cost much. Not sure what "inexpensive" means to you.

but a few hundred bucks to get it done right is the way to go.

$250-300 to wrap the roof, i'm hoping your plastidip job is cheaper. I'm sure about $400 can takecare of everything if you wrap them.

I got a guy $80 to wrap the roof or $60 to plasti dip it. He uses 3M. I'm pretty excited to do it.
